Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, 46, will become a professor of practice at the University of Sydney, according to a statement. Ardern gained global recognition for her management of the Covid-19 pandemic in New Zealand, though her popularity within the country declined as restrictions continued during her final months in office. She left politics in January 2023.

Ardern recently relocated to Sydney's northern beaches. In her new role, she aims to focus on empathetic leadership, social cohesion, and civic trust. Her work will involve delivering guest lectures, masterclasses, and mentoring sessions. The University of Sydney highlights her dedication to developing innovative approaches to global and values-based leadership.
