Dianne Bevelander Memorial Fund

Continue the pioneering work of Professor Dianne Bevelander through a new fund that supports women and promotes gender equality. Over three decades at RSM, Professor Dianne Bevelander put gender balance, equality and diversity firmly at the top of the agenda – not just in Rotterdam but across the international business and academic community.

As Dianne said herself:

Amplification is key. That spirit that led her to establish the Erasmus Centre for Women and Organisations (ECWO) in 2014 as a standalone centre within RSM. ECWO works to understand, support, advise and advocate for and on behalf of women in organisations, and to help change the face of organisations everywhere.

Now, thanks to seed funding gifted by the Bevelander Family, and with your support, the Dianne Bevelander Memorial Fund will build upon the work that Dianne started – amplifying new generations of fearless women in her memory.
