International Day of Rural Women

The team at CAWLS are today celebrating UN International Day of Rural Women – a day to recognise the critical role and contribution of rural women in enhancing agricultural and rural development, improving food security and eradicating rural poverty

Did you know that one-third of Australian women live in rural, regional and remote areas?

Rural women face unique challenges – isolation, restricted access to health services and technologies – yet they play a vital role in ensuring the sustainability of rural households & communities
