SAWIP December 2011

The Management and Boards of SAWIP would like to congratulate Dinika Govender and Thuli Montana for being chosen as the 2012 Team Managers. Both Dinika and Thuli are alumni of the SAWIP 2011 Team.

 


Dinika Govender

 

Dinika, a student from the University of Cape Town, is currently completing her degree in Business Science, Finance and Marketing. She is “perseverant and is a future-oriented agent of change.” Dinika believes that “continuity with innovation is an integral part of sustainable leadership, yet all too often it is absent in youth leadership.”

 


Thuli Montana

 

Thuli is an Environmental and Water Science student from the University of the Western Cape. She is “a vibrant, goal orientated young woman, who is motivated by challenges.” We look forward to working with these two energetic young women who will no doubt contribute to the growth, stature and influence of SAWIP.
