Regional Australia has the opportunity to actively identify and participate in solutions that will transform the future. A critical component of this is empowering people in regional communities. The second National ‘Sustaining Rural Communities’ Conference will focus on the solutions to Transforming Regional Australia.
This will include identifying those ways in which people in various communities are already addressing these issues, as well as tools, technologies, infrastructure and policy changes that can be used more eff ectively.
The event will enable delegates to put their own ideas and solutions on the table and have them heard well beyond the four walls of the conference. Delegates will be able to network during and after the event with like minded people from regional communities all over Australia including a range of agricultural industries, small business, government, mining, manufacturing, fi nance, tourism, transport, science, education and health professionals. Empowering people in regional communities to actively participate is vital if we are to succeed in transforming the future of Regional Australia.
