Rural women New Zealand: strengthening rural communities
Abstract
Rural Women New Zealand has been in operation for over 80 years. Through the
years and the name changes its main aim to support rural women, families and
communities has stayed basically the same.
As a relatively new member of RWNZ, there is a lot about the organisation that I do
not know about or understand, and there are a lot of others in the organisation that
are in the same position.
This is the reasoning behind me looking at RWNZ, so that I can get a better
understanding of the organisation as a whole, and hopefully other members may as
well.
To further my knowledge and understanding, I looked at a number of areas within
the organisation, and asked the Members for their input, mainly in the form of
surveys, and non members for their thoughts as well.
I also recognised terms used within RWNZ that members need to know about have
put these into an extra publication I called "RWNZ for Dummies and New Members"see
