Construcciones Yamaro: NAWIC shows support for Women in Industry Awards

By

Recognising the success of women from across industries, the Women in Industry Awards is returning in 2023 with a special new construction industry sponsor on board.

In 2023, the annual Women in Industry Awards (WII) celebrates its 10th year of acknowledging the incredible women championing positive change in their industries. This year, The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) has come on board as the sponsor of the Excellence in Construction Award.

To be held on 8 June 2023 in Melbourne, it’s a premier event on the industry calendar.

After witnessing last year’s event, NAWIC General Manager Lauren Fahey says her team was inspired to show their support through sponsorship.

“The Women in Industry Awards is a significant event that celebrates and amplifies the achievements of women’s contributions to the sector,” she says. “It’s a prime example of our mantra – you can be what you can see – and we are excited to support an event that showcases the amazing achievements of women.”

Sponsored by NAWIC, the WII Excellence in Construction Award recognises an individual who has made a positive contribution to one of the many facets of the construction sector, an accolade that strongly aligns with the important work NAWIC does as a peak industry body.

“Supporting women in industry is a significant way we all can improve female economic security, overcome the skills and labour crisis, and deliver greater profitability and innovation to industry,” says Fahey. “At NAWIC we think that’s worth advocating for.”

“Sharing stories of successful women in construction is both empowering for the recipient and inspiring for the wider sector; this award is so important for the industry as a whole.”

Nominations for the 2023 event closed in mid-April and Fahey says the NAWIC team will be there on the night to witness the remarkable women being highlighted as nominees and winners. A free NAWIC membership will also be offered to the nominees and winner of the Excellence in Construction category.

“Our hope is to connect these women to the amazing NAWIC network that we have across the country to continue to foster the support and growth of these women,” she adds.

As well as recognising the women spearheading change in the construction industry, the WII shines a light on a number of industries where women make up a small percentage. Fahey explains that supporting and recognising women helps to change the culture of the construction industry and the other male dominated industries across Australia.

“These awards demonstrate that women do belong in industries like construction, engineering and mining, and can have a rewarding career,” she says. “WII’s purpose of supporting outstanding women driving change and breaking down barriers aligns closely with our values.”

“These women are exactly the type of women that built NAWIC; these women are our mentors, our guiding forces, our members and our volunteers.

“We advocate for change, and these women are creating change every day to help pave the way for future generations.”
