ACIAR was proud to launch the Meryl Williams Fellowship, a program dedicated to strengthening the leadership skills of women in agricultural research. This new cohort comprises participants from ASEAN countries who came together in Kuala Lumpur for a foundational workshop. Over the next six months, Fellows will participate in a variety of learning activities, including a mentoring program, culminating in a final reflective workshop in Australia.
The Meryl Williams Fellowship (MWF) offers participants the opportunity to engage in professional development through workshops, mentoring, collaborative assignments, and activities both regionally and in Australia. Fellows are supported to build leadership and professional skills, with activities tailored to their individual goals.
