The Canada and New Zealand chapters of Women in Geothermal (WING) have opened applications for the 2025 Intake of the WING Co-Mentorship Program, which will run from 8 October 2025 to 8 April 2026.
For interested participants, click here to submit your applications. The application period will be from 11 August to 8 September 2025.
The WING co-mentorship initiative is aimed at fostering connections and promoting collaborative dialogue across borders to accelerate geothermal in our energy future. The program will match participants from Canada and New Zealand who are at comparable levels in their careers.
Each pairing aims to merge diverse perspectives and offers a chance for mutual growth through the exchange of expertise in their respective areas. It is a collaborative learning process that is shared equally between the partners.
The program is open to all WING members (free membership) within the geothermal sector that reside in Canada or New Zealand. All genders welcome. The focus will be to pair individuals at comparable levels in the early to mid-career stages (2-15 years in the geothermal industry). Participants are asked to attend and actively participate in all plenary sessions. Half an hour is to be allocated per month to meet with your match on your own schedule.
Why Participate?
This is your opportunity to create an international ally in the sector. Through the broader cohort, you’ll connect with key organizations and expand your global network. There is power in connecting across borders, which can lead to opportunities to meet at global conferences, such as the World Geothermal Congress soon to be held in Canada.
With both Canada and New Zealand advancing Indigenous owned and led projects, there’s strong potential for mutual learning and impact. There is value in discussing the research and development that is at play in both countries. From drilling accelerators, to innovative technologies, together we are accelerating the future of geothermal.
