The funded places are for the first delivery of Women Leading Now (29 Jul, 03 & 04 Aug 2021).

Candidates applying for funded places on Women Leading Now through the Victorian Rural Women’s Leadership and Mentoring Program must adhere to the following terms and conditions:

  • be a regional or rural woman who permanently resides in Victoria;
  • be involved in the Victorian agriculture sector and/or the Victorian agriculture supply chain.
  • be able to commit to attendance via Zoom for the published program dates, including the evening pre-program get-together.

Selected candidates will be expected to participate in a range of communications activities connected to the Victorian Rural Women’s Network and Leadership Victoria including, but not limited to:

  • newsletter and magazine articles
  • social media posts
  • website stories

  • other opportunities related to the Victorian Rural Women’s Network.

Additionally, they are required to contribute to progress reporting related to their funded place.

A capped out-of-pocket expenses allowance is available on a case-by-case basis for child-minding and other costs that might prevent potential candidates from participating in this program. Details will be supplied on securing a funded place

Funded places through this initiative are not transferable.
