Previous Wave Makers of the Year
WAN celebrates a Wavemaker of the Year to honor the growing accomplishments of people in the water sector, to expose the WAN community to strong leaders in the marine, coastal, and aquatic spheres, and to learn from their career and personal journey.
As of 2023, WAN also welcomed nominations for organizations as well!
Note that candidates can be located outside of the D.C. region as long as they are within the U.S.
Land & Territorial Acknowledgement
The Women’s Aquatic Network acknowledges, with respect, that the land we are on today is the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Anacostans (also documented as Nacotchtank), and the neighboring Piscataway and Pamunkey peoples.
