Celebrate women in ag by nominating an Influential Woman in Canadian Agriculture
|
Applications are currently open for the 2021 Influential Women in Canadian Agriculture (IWCA) program. The IWCA, a venture launched by the agricultural publications at Annex Business Media, aims to highlight the strongest female leaders in the ag industry. Honourees will have their stories told through editorial content including a podcast series, a digital edition and an online event.
In total, the team will select six women from across various disciplines in agriculture and highlight their stories, achievements, challenges and wisdom through our brands: Top Crop Manager, Potatoes in Canada, Canadian Poultry, Manure Manager and Fruit & Vegetable.
Between now and March 26, you have a chance to recognize an influential woman in the agriculture industry. Visit www.agwomen.ca to submit your nomination.
Honourees can be producers, researchers, advocates or anyone else who has served as a trailblazer in ag.
“We were blown away by the incredible nominations we received for the 2020 IWCA program, representing women from all sectors of Canadian agriculture,” says Stefanie Croley, Editorial Director, Agriculture, at Annex Business Media. “There are more female trailblazers in agriculture than ever before, and the IWCA program was designed to celebrate and honour their achievements.”
The program will culminate on Oct. 19 with the IWCA Summit, a half-day, virtual event where our Influential Women in Canadian Agriculture will share advice and experience to their fellow women in ag.
“Women throughout Canadian Agriculture are doing remarkable things! IWCA helps to bring the industry together to support those achievements and learn from defining moments of courage and strength during their journey in Ag, therefore adding value to the industry,” adds Michelle Allison, Publisher at Annex Business Media.
“The 2020 IWCA Summit was an inspirational half-day virtual event that focused around real conversation and the sharing of advice and wisdom from women in ag, to women in ag,” Croley adds. “We are thrilled to continue this program in 2021, further promoting the important contributions women bring to Canada’s agriculture industry.”
