Women in FCERM are a networking group of professionals set up to support and connect women working across the flood and coastal erosion risk management (FCERM) sector. We are focussed on women and those who line-manage them, but this is within a broader context of striving for gender equality for everyone, so our membership is open to all.
We deliver this initiative through 6 elements.
- Providing local and national networking opportunities
- Promoting and celebrating individuals who are leading the way through our awards
- Raising awareness of the issues affecting women through our communications,
- Gathering data and evidence to understand how WiFCERM can complement and support other initiatives.
- Supporting women within the industry directly with growth and career development through our group mentoring programme
- Raising awareness of organisations who are contributing to gender equality across the FCERM sector through our corporate affiliation.
