Welcome to QRRRWN
The Queensland Rural Regional and Remote Women’s Network Inc. is here to CONNECT, DEVELOP and INSPIRE the wonderful women in our Rural, Regional and Remote Queensland areas.
We have a busy program of events, development opportunities and opportunities to connect with and hear from inspiring women. Look at our 2020 Program here and see how we work to deliver the program to you in our 2020 Strategic Plan.
We are building a vibrant and strong community of women! Come join us.
What We Do
Our role is to validate and legitimise the myriad roles of rural, regional and remote women.
QRRRWN Inc. strategic objectives are to develop the capacity of RRR women through education to overcome adversity, develop leadership and participate in decision-making.
QRRRWN Inc. uses its networks to reach RRR women and builds their capacity through:
- Connecting by creating inclusive safe environments and providing capacity building programs
- Networking RRR women with individuals, businesses, government and organisations
- Inspiring RRR women to realise their potential, be influential, contribute and share their stories
- Fundamental to our purpose is building the capacity of RRR women.
Sponsors, Funding & Volunteers
QRRRWN is a not-for-profit. It relies on grants, donations and sponsorship. We are fortunate to have maintained a long term relationship with Westpac who has sponsored QRRRWN for many years. We are also privileged to have received funding for our programs from a range of other sources including the Financial Planning Association, local sponsors where events are held and in 2019 and 2020 the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal has made it possible to bring to our members our Annual Conference and the Strong Women in Leadership Awards.
Our volunteers are what keeps QRRRWN going. Over many years hundreds of women have volunteered time to support QRRRWN and to lift up other rural, regional and remote women. The work is unpaid and at times it is extremely busy. We thank you for supporting QRRRWN and other rural, regional and remote women.
Programs Funded by the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal
In 2019 and 2020, the Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal (FRRR) has provided funding for QRRRWN’s ‘Thriving Women, Thriving Communities Project’ that includes QRRRWN’s Annual Conference and the Strong Women in Leadership Awards. The funding also enables our Volunteering & Regional Teams program.
We are deeply grateful to FRRR for their ongoing support to ensure that these events and programs are made accessible to our members and other rural, regional and remote women.
