Regions Rising - Western Australia 2023
Regions Rising is the Regional Australia Institute’s (RAI’s) national event series, running since 2019.
It is an engagement program, made up of in-person and virtual events, through which the RAI presents its research on regional issues to promote dialogue and thought leadership.
On Friday 10 March 2023, 9:00 am - 6:30 pm (the conference will conclude at 4.15 pm and this will be followed by sundowner drinks), we bring together industry experts, economists, regional leaders, government, political leaders, academics and the community sector to deliver the latest information on the key pillars affecting regional communities - including jobs and skills, housing, population, liveability, productivity and resilience.
RAI CEO, Liz Ritchie and the Minister for Regional Development; Disability Services; Fisheries; Seniors and Ageing, the Hon. Don Punch MLA will deliver keynote addresses, and the ABC’s National Regional Reporter, Eliza Borrello will moderate the day.
