Rural Women's Network
The Rural Women's Network (RWN) is a state-wide government program within the Industry & Investment NSW.
The RWN works in innovative ways to share information and promote action on rural women's issues, often in partnership with individuals, groups and non-government and government agencies. More about us.
The Rural Women's Network offers a FREE email subscription list to anyone interested in receiving regular items of interest relevant to the rural sector.
It is as simple as completing the on-line form with your name and email address.
Congratulations to our 2010 Award finalists, Alison McIntosh from Laggan and Lana Mitchell from Gundaroo. The winner will be announced at a special Gala Dinner in February 2010.
