Farewell Aurora Bell

Board Member Aurora Bell resigned from the Harry Otten Foundation Board of Directors on 31 March 2021.   Aurora joined the Board on 15 July 2020 and started making an immediate impact.  Aurora is from the Bureau of Meteorology in Melbourne Australia, and therefore she has strong connections with the meteorological community in Australia.  The Board has long wanted to improve its profile in the Southern Hemisphere, and Aurora proved to be an extremely energetic advocate and helped spread the word about the opportunity of the Harry Otten Prize both in Australia and in other parts of the world.  In addition, she worked to ensure that the Board continue to consider diversity, equity, and inclusion in its activities.  We will miss her.
