Regional Development Australia-Riverina (RDA-Riverina) is part of an Australian Government initiative based on building partnerships and ensuring that all governments and stakeholders are responsive to local priorities and needs. It is a conduit between government and local communities, and a provider of information. RDA-Riverina is a non-profit, community-based organisation, with a committee of 12 members spanning 14 local government areas who represent local communities, businesses and local government. RDA-Riverina’s committee has a broad and diverse skills base and demonstrated networks and alliances. RDAs are champions for local communities, working towards developing local solutions to local problems, and ensuring the prosperity of the regions.
