January Stronger Together! Informal Mentoring for Women in Water 9:00 UTC

With SuSanA, Women in Water and Sanitation Network (WWSN), African Women Sanitation Professionals Network, the African Water Association and SIWI, CWiW is pleased to offer a virtual session of informal mentoring just in time for making good on your New Year’s Resolutions!

We know that formal mentoring can be a very structured and may not give the results anticipated. We want to encourage the women who attend this session to better understand how they can benefit from less ‘standardized,’ more informal mentoring from younger and older colleagues. We want participants to understand that a mentor is anyone who knows more about a topic and can offer insights. This interactive hour-long session will pair up participants to allow them to learn from and share with one another about challenges in their careers or how they can take their next step.

Join us for 9:00 UTC (10:00 CET / 11:00 EAT / 20:00 AEDT)

For both sessions, we are pleased to have Kathryn Pharr, Founder of the Community of Women in Water, facilitating. 

Kathryn Pharr started the Community of Women in Water four years ago (Jan 2019) as a way of connecting women working on water issues around the world. She has facilitated and spoken at both virtual and online events with CWiW and in her work experience including WaterAid, University of Oxford, and AGWA. Recently she was on three panels at COP27 discussing climate finance for water and sanitation services. When not working on CWiW, Kathryn is a Sr Policy Adviser on International Climate Action for WaterAid and is based in London.
