Since 1965, the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust has been providing New Zealanders of any age, in any industry, and at any stage in their career, the chance to travel overseas to learn from others. These learnings are then brought back to Aotearoa, and applied for the betterment of our communities. Yesterday in the Legislative Council Chamber at Parliament, Dame Cindy and Dr Davies joined the newest fellows in celebrating the work they have achieved on their fellowships, which ranged from sustainable urban design and water management practices, to digital health equity and investigating young people’s democratic participation. They also honoured the Churchill McNeish Writers’ Fellows, who undertake writing residencies around the world. This event was a full-circle moment for Dr Davies, who received a Churchill Fellowship in 2018 to study approaches for improving primary healthcare for the long-term homeless.
