“Let’s together drive WiLAT to even greater heights by inspiring, empowering, educating and making an impact on our profession.” WiLAT Global Chairperson 4 WiLAT: Spreading our Wings
I am deeply honoured to share this message as WiLAT Global celebrates a decade of inspiring and empowering women in logistics and transport to make an impact in our industry. Our journey in the past decade has been very rewarding and fulfilling. It all started with WiLAT Nigeria in 2010 and then in 2013 the birth of WiLAT Global. Over the past decade, WiLAT spread its wings and connected so many. We have seen women conquering new heights and becoming role models for others. We have nurtured the next generation of women in logistics and transport – the Stars of WiLAT (SoW), with our newly launched awards. As we march towards our 10 th anniversary, WiLAT is stronger than ever before. We have expanded our footprint into 34 territories and have over 3,250 members working together with one common goal. My heartfelt appreciation goes to our first Global Convenor Aisha Ali Ibrahim and the Immediate Past Chairperson Dr Dorothy Chan for their leadership and steering WiLAT to what it is today. We all know the decade ahead of us will be a defining one, not only for women but for all of us. Climate change, as well as adapting to the lasting effects of a global pandemic present challenges we must all rise to. We have embedded sustainability in all our plans. WiLAT chapters are also active in promoting corporate social responsibility projects. The newly launched virtual WiLAT Capacity Building Centre (WCBC) will be another important asset in helping members build futureready skills. We are also forging partnerships with funding agencies in various countries. Our members understand the value of being part of a professional body like the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport which gives them access to the most powerful global professional network in the industry for continuing professional education and to engage and share best practices. As the current Global Chairperson, I am thankful to each and every one of your contributions to drive the WiLAT agenda. We have the vision, the resolve and the capability. We make change real, turning ideas into actions. Let’s together drive WiLAT to even greater heights by inspiring, empowering, educating and making an impact to our profession. The importance of our purpose from that day in 2013 has not diminished. If at all it has only magnified. Let us continue the journey by joining hands with a purpose and passion to drive progress!
