2021 Inspiring Youth in Rural, Regional & Remote Queensland
With the generous support of the Office of Women and the Queensland Government, QRRRWN has been able to inspire and develop young women in rural, regional and remote Queensland for a number of years. In 2021 QRRRWN will include a youth program within its annual conference again. It is an opportunity for young women attending the Youth Program to engage with mentors who provide:
- career guidance; and
- illuminate pathways for their role in rural, regional and remote communities.

Volunteers
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.
