Daring to Dream (DTD) is a tribute to the many women from rural, regional and remote backgrounds who have dared to take the plunge, set goals and overcome challenges to make their dreams happen. The stories show the creativity and resilience of women as they share their stories and provide inspiration and ideas for others.

A project of NSW Department of Primary Industries Rural Women’s Network, DTD celebrates and recognises rural women who are playing key roles as achievers and agents of change within their communities in one or more of the following areas; agriculture, industry, business, community, sport, the arts and natural resources, by sharing their stories and providing a mechanism for networking and informal mentoring.

DTD features a diversity of women from across NSW and includes high profile women as well as those unsung heroines doing amazing things but who have had little recognition.
