UWA Conference

"Promoting Financial Literacy Among Women and Girls" 1-2 May 2009

The University Women's Association (Singapore) or UWAS is pleased to announce that we will be hosting The 8th Triennial Conference of the University Women of Asia (UWA) in Singapore

The Conference aims to bring university women in Asia and Asia-Pacific region together to learn from each other through the sharing of their knowledge, experience and wisdom. Given the current economic situation, there is the great need for women and girls to be educated in common financial principles and attain a measure of financial capability that will both enable and empower them in all aspects of their life.

UWA CONFERENCE REGISTRATION CLOSING DATE: 22 April 2009

Getting to Know ...

Genevieve Ng

Profession:
An accounting, finance & HR practitioner.

Background:
I graduated from Curtin University Of Technology in 1991, obtained my CPA from CPA Australia in 1995, graduated with a Master of Business Administration from University Of Western Australia in 1996 and obtained my Fellow of FINSIA in 2005.

Interests/Hobbies:
I read widely, ponder deeply and analyse topics of interest. Helping youth and young adult to realise their untap potential to give their best in their studies and life with hard work and no short cut. Motivating myself to get off the couch to exercise. And volunteer my time to de-stigmatise mental health, which is a turn off conversation topic for many in our society.

Favourite Haunt in Singapore
No particular specific haunt in Singapore though I tend to laze around my neighbourhood in the eastside of Singapore during weekends and public holidays.

Interesting fact
A woman of contradiction. Whilst I strive for work life balance, I usually would not refuse challenging tasks. And kind friends would advise me against burnout.
