Australian Alumni of the Philippines: Dia Lacaba (University of New South Wales)
“Living in Australia for two years and studying with people from all sorts and different cultures gave me a more global perspective. I think that helped me immensely in my work. As head of international business for Human Nature, I deal with different distributors from other countries on a day to day basis. That entails understanding how other people from other cultures think…”
An Australia Awards recipient, Dia graduated from the University of New South Wales with a Master of Commerce specializing in International Business in 2013. Dia has over ten years of experience in the consumer goods and services industry working with both international and Philippine companies. Currently, she is the Head of International Business for Human Nature, a social enterprise aimed at raising the quality of life of farmers and urban workers in the Philippines through dignified wages and fair working practices.
