EMPOWERING YOUNG RURAL WOMEN
ANNOUNCING OUR 2019 WINNERS!
We are thrilled to unveil the EIGHTEEN winners of Country to Canberra’s 2019 Leadership Competition!
The winners are an exciting group of young leaders from every state, who submitted passionate videos and stories about gender equality and rural Australia. They now win a once-in-a-lifetime Power Trip to the nation’s capital to advocate side-by-side with Australia’s top leaders.
OUR PROGRAMS
A prestigious annual competition that awards winners with a ‘Power Trip’ to Canberra where winners meet inspiring politicians/CEOs, receive leadership and public speaking training, tour Parliament, score a mentor, get their work published and more!
Project
Empower
Our award-winning workshops are held in rural and remote high schools to discuss self-esteem, respectful relationships, intersectionality and girls’ futures. In 2018 we drove 32,000km to reach
3,500 girls, and are actively looking to expand to phase two.
Mentoring Program
We connect young women with established mentors to assist with goal-setting, managing stress and their futures. Held on a safe online forum with monthly ‘worksheets’ to steer the conversation, mentees are actively supported to achieve their goals.
Blogger
Team
We facilitate and mentor a team of teenage bloggers living across Australia to give young rural women a forum to discuss key issues, build writing skills and kick start their advocacy experience. Girls can sign up anytime to join our inclusive online community!
