The RDA network

Our network is made up of local leaders who work across government, business and community groups all with the goal to improve their local region. This is achieved by supporting economic and workforce development, local procurement, strategic regional planning and informing government programs and infrastructure investments. 

An Australian Government initiative

This Australian Government initiative brings together all levels of government and is funded by the Australian Government and by state, territory and local governments in some jurisdictions. The RDA program is administered by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts. 

A vital link

The RDA network is a vital link between regional stakeholders and all 3 levels of government. Our RDA committee members act as real-time advisers to government on critical regional development issues, opportunities and challenges in their regions.  For more information, go to: RDA Charter. Our network provides regional intelligence to inform policy and the implementation of regional programs, information campaigns and grant funding opportunities.
