| Fiona Armstrong - she has visited and spoken in both Shepparton and Tatura. |
And now the tireless chief executive of the Melbourne-based
Climate and Health Alliance (CAHA) has been named as one of Australia’s 100
Women of Influence.
She was one of 10 named in the “Social enterprise and
not-for-profit” section of the awards.
In a message to her supporters, Fiona said: “Also amused to
find myself in the company of Gina Rinehart! Hopefully we are all helping to
address the harm she causes - and for that I’m grateful to you all for the work
you do in the climate movement and the support, guidance and encouragement
provided to both myself and CAHA as part of that effort.
“I hope it will be a boost for the issue of climate action
and especially around health - I felt even getting my nomination in front of
the selection panel (which included the Prime Minister's wife, Lucy Turnbull)
would help raise awareness about this issue - and for that alone it was
possibly worth doing!” she said.
