NFMV Volunteer Louise Owen Departs as a Life Member

Louise Owen leaves after drawing up a comprehensive information management system for NFMV.

NFMV has an enormous debt of gratitude owing to Louise Owen, a Volunteer Management Consultant who was with us for just over three months and drew up a “living” information management system, applying international best practice of procedural systems.

The structure and framework was set up in line with ISO9001:2008 (ISO 9k) compliance. A very big Vinaka Vaka Levu Louise.

Louise was also involved in a wide variety of NFMV activities from helping out at the Serua Province Sago Planting Day to assisting the Permanent Forest Project’s forums up in Vanua Levu.

But the biggest surprise was left until last.

As she left to return to the UK, Louise joined NFMV as a Life Member.

Her subscription will be one of the first in NFMV’s new Sustainability Fund which she encouraged us to set up.
