At the age of 25 and again at the age of 28, Rumeet received the honour of being named one of Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women in the future leaders category. She was selected to represent Canada at the 6th Annual UNESCO International Leadership Programme: A Global Intergenerational Forum, and was a facilitator for the European Regional Forum in Italy. She also served as the Canadian Ambassador for the 1GOAL: Education for All campaign with FIFA World Cup. For 2012, her focus is to continue integrating her business and doctoral studies with her passion for creating change through education.
