ERG PhD student Valeri Vasquez will be among 95 women representing 28 countries next year for the Homeward Bound leadership program, a ground-breaking leadership initiative which aims to heighten the influence and impact of women in making decisions that shape our planet. Through workshops, lectures, networking, and excursions, the program aims to foster leadership development, strategic capability, visibility and science communication, and science collaboration among the women selected, as well as among the entities that they represent.
