WiER Advisory Committee

The Writers In Electronic Residence Advisory Committee comprises members whose expertise spans the cultural, educational, business and technology sectors. Each year, the Committee considers WiER's development, and offers its insights, counsel and direction.

Each member's individual expertise makes a valuable contribution, and helps to ensure that WiER both aspires to, and maintains, a high level of excellence in all facets of the program. We are honoured to work with the Advisory Committee. Current members are listed by sector.
