Mission: To foster a strong
community of women and enhance stewardship of the environment through
networking and career development.
Vision: A healthy
environment and a sustainable world.
Values: A collaborative
balance between the environment, economy and equity, and a greater
engagement of the community at large on environmental issues.
The Women's
Environmental Network (WEN) of the has been in existence since
the early 1990s and was incorporated as a 501(c)3 in 1997. The primary
function of the organization is to provide education and networking for
professional women in the environmental field in the Bay Area, as well
as to produce a regular newsletter. WEN's 2,000+ community members use
each other as resources for information and learning about environmental
fields, best practices, and career development. Just as the definition
of the word “environmental” is fairly broad, the WEN membership
reflects a wide range of interests and professions.
The WEN
community works for a healthy and sustainable environment and we seek to
educate and engage the greater community about these issues. We hope
you'll join us in our mission!
