EMPOWERING business women in rural areas across the region now have the opportunity to enter in the AgriFuture 2022 Rural Women’s Award.
The Rural Women’s Award gives a bursary to a woman who is passionately involved in their rural area through emerging industries, businesses and communities.
Next year's awards will have tighter guidelines which require entrants to have an already existing project, business or program which falls into a community, collaboration or commercial category.
Each winner will receive a $15,000 bursary as well as access to development opportunities across the AgriFuture Alumni networks.
Managing Director of Agri-Futures Australia said that this award is important in recognising the hard work rural women do in industries across the region.
“As an organisation dedicated to the long-term prosperity of our rural and emerging industries,” he said.
“The Rural Women’s Award is just one of AgriFutures Australia’s initiatives ensuring those working towards the same vision are identified, celebrated and empowered.
“We know there are so many rural women doing amazing things in their industries and communities and we want to hear from them.”
