What’s the most exciting part of being a DiNN Award winner for you or your organisation?
The most exciting part of being a DiNN Award Winner is the recognition that what we are building through the Network for Black Women Leaders matters. This work has grown from listening to Black women, understanding what has been missing, and creating spaces, support and opportunities that reflect both our ambitions and our realities.
The award also brings greater visibility and credibility at an important stage in our journey. It helps shine a light on the leadership, potential and ambition within our community, while strengthening our ability to open new conversations with partners, funders and supporters who want to invest in Black women’s leadership.
