About the organisation
The mission of the Peter Cullen Water and Environment Trust is to bridge science, people and the environment through inspiring and cultivating meaningful conversations and capacity building.
The Trust was founded on the philosophy that, to improve Australia’s water and environmental management, we need to enhance the link between good science and effective policy making. This requires effective leadership skills, particularly around communicating in ways that bring science to life and make it relevant for politicians and policy makers. It also requires respectful, informed and meaningful collaboration which is the key to responsible and sustainable water management, now and in the future.
To this end the Peter Cullen Trust runs high level immersive leadership programs targeted at individuals from across the water and environment sector in Australia. Graduates of the Trust's programs become part of the PCT Fellows Network that connects and empowers leaders working to create a world where water and the environnment are managed sustainbly and equitably.
