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.
Awarded annually, the Dianne Bevelander Prize recognizes an individual who has furthered gender equality within their organisation.
Empowers female students, academic researchers and professionals in the early stages of their careers.
Her tireless, fearless leadership and advocacy enabled us to empower many women to move into positions of leadership and become change agents for gender equality.

The Dianne Bevelander Memorial Fund provides an opportunity for the community that Dianne created – and which continues to thrive and grow – to play an role in continuing the legacy of this extraordinary woman, to ensure that women truly lead from wherever they are. Over the past four years, many donations have been made to the Bevelander Fund, enabling us fund to reach more women across geographies and sectors, helping them to develop the skills and courage to lead authentically.
