With sponsorship from Australian Dairy Conference, the Gardiner Foundation will conduct a tour of the South Island for 12 young dairy professionals from across Australia in April.
Applicants for the tour must be aged between 18 and 40, and could be working on-farm or involved in the dairy industry in a different capacity.
The eight-day tour will provide participants with insights into the opportunities and challenges faced within the New Zealand dairy industry and the leadership required to navigate a successful path.
“The New Zealand Study Tour is a fantastic opportunity for young dairy professionals, our future industry and community leaders, to immerse themselves in all that the New Zealand dairy industry has to offer,” Gardiner Foundation chief executive officer Allan Cameron said.
Young dairy professionals from across Australia are encouraged to apply.
Gardiner Foundation is committed to providing experiential leadership experiences and initiatives like the New Zealand Study Tour, which will increase the depth in industry and community leadership capacity.
Applications are now open and will close at 11.59pm on Sunday, February 4, with selection interviews to be held in Melbourne.
