Meet our 2026 Series Ambassadors
Driving Positive Change Together.
During each International Women's Day Event Series, we proudly profile incredible women from across the mining sector as our Series Ambassadors. Nominated by each Signature Partner, these accomplished leaders are dedicated to championing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in their organisations and beyond.
We are proud to introduce our 2026 Series Ambassadors (below) and over the coming weeks we will showcase their remarkable careers and achievements, their leadership and approach to DEI, and what inspires them to keep working towards a more inclusive workplace.
They will be front and centre of our International Women's Day campaign starting important conversations and empowering all of us to 'drive positive change together'.
