Introducing Deepa Goswami and Shannon Ball, our first Mentorship pairing.
The WasteMINZ Mentorship Programme connects professionals across the waste, resource recovery, and circular economy sectors to share knowledge, build capability, and support career development. We're pleased to introduce one of the mentor-mentee pairings, Michelle Kazor and Justine Cliffe.
Mentor: Michelle Kazor
"I’m Director of Versity Ltd. In short, we help organisations make better decisions in the waste and resource recovery sector. I’ve learned so much from generous people across the sector over many years. Mentoring felt like a good way to give back, share what I’ve learned, and be useful!"
Mentee: Justine Cliffe
"I’m the Project Delivery Manager at Zero Waste Tāmaki Makaurau.
I joined the mentoring programme to better understand circularity, product stewardship initiatives and producer responsibility in Aotearoa.
I hope to apply this new knowledge to benefit Auckland’s community recycling centre (CRC) network, helping bring them to the forefront of the circular economy. "
