2023 Responsible Business Education Grant

The Women's Jewelry Association Foundation, in partnership with New York University's School of Business Executive Education, is offering Responsible Business Education Grants to two individuals. Recipients will enroll in NYU's sustainability programs, including courses such as "Corporate Sustainability" taught by Professor Tensie Whelan, former President of the Rainforest Alliance. These courses are designed for professionals in small and large companies to help their businesses become a positive force for change through sustainable supply chain management, employee and consumer engagement, and sustainability marketing.

This year's grants are sponsored by Platinum Guild International, an organization dedicated to promoting platinum and its qualities to consumers and the jewelry trade. Applicants must submit responses to essay questions demonstrating their commitment to responsible sourcing and sustainability practices in their career and/or business. Images may be uploaded but are optional. Applicants must be current members of the WJA for at least one year prior to applying.
