Our Advisory Council
The GWDI Advisory Council (GWDI-AC) is established to support and advance the values, vision, and mission of the GWDI. The charge of the GWDI-AC and its members is to provide open, transparent, and authentic communication between the various stakeholders to ensure reciprocal relationships and mutually beneficial outcomes for all parties.
This includes providing diversity of perspectives, mission-critical information, and tangible recommendations to the council and/or staff members directly responsible for spearheading this effort. Council members possess content areas of expertise, experiences, and/or relationships that are foundational to achieving the stated aims and objectives of the GWDI. Council members are also champions and advocates for this strategic endeavor in pursuit of sustained impact, capacity-building, and the leveraging of collective resources
