2020 QRRRWN Strong Women Leadership Awards Program
For the eighth consecutive year, the program will identify and celebrate the exceptional leadership strengths of another legion of outstanding women who live, work, achieve, volunteer and/or are in service of Queensland’s rural, regional and remote (RRR) areas.
QRRRWN’s Awards program applauds the achievements of rural, regional and remote women in all their diversity and skill and is a platform to both recognise their achievements and to connect them with QRRRWN’s network, as they become alumni of the program. Their skills are nurtured and developed by a series of webinars which encourage nominees to work with mentors to articulate their work, both volunteer and paid.
