RRR Women’s Network
Overview
The Rural, Remote and Regional (RRR) Women’s Network consists of over 5,800 individual members throughout Western Australia. The Network's role is to bring together women from rural, remote and regional Western Australia to recognise, promote and expand the contribution they make to their communities. It aims to provide a mechanism for women to disseminate and share information on topics of interest to women and relevant to the development of regional communities.

The RRR Women’s Network produces a quarterly magazine, Network News, which has a distribution of 9,000 copies quarterly. It features a wide range of articles on family, agriculture, business, community and health with stories of relevance to women everywhere.

The Network was launched in August 1996 and is jointly sponsored by the Department of Local Government and Regional Development and the Department of Agriculture.

The RRR Network is supported by a Reference Group which is jointly appointed by the two Ministers. Half of the members of the Group retire annually and are replaced by new appointees. Calls for nomination are advertised towards the end of each year.
