NZRA Announces Fellow Award

To mark NZRA's 20^th Anniversary the NZRA Executive Board announces the NZRA Fellow Award. The award of "Fellow" is granted to a member(s) who are regarded as having made a significant contribution to the purpose, aims and work of NZRA. This award calls for an outstanding and sustained contribution. "Nominations" should come from the regions (no later than 21 September) or executive rather than being "called for." Read the rest of the NZRA Fellowship Guidelines here. Any fellowship(s) awarded will be during the AGM held at the National Conference.
