Beyond the Bushfires - Call for stories

25/Jun/2009

The Rural Women's Network, an initiative of the Victorian Department of Planning and Community Development, is looking for inspiring, empowering and informative stories of beyond the bushfires from a woman's perspective.

The Rural Women's Network would like to capture the stories emerging of the extraordinary contributions that women are making to the rebuilding of the Victorian bushfire affected communities.....leading the way beyond the bushfires

They are looking for inspiring, empowering and informative articles that tell the story of beyond the bushfires from a woman’s perspective. A variety of themes will be covered: art, tourism, volunteering (fire, community organisations, hospitals, veterinary), shelter, conservation, how to keep history alive, fundraising efforts, the work of government and non-government, local government, schools, children, young people, partnerships formed with other Victorian women...

As it is truly a women's community publication, writers with all levels of skills and experience are encouraged to send their submissions.

Deadline for submissions is Wednesday 15th July, 2009 - for more details, please download the Beyond the Bushfires - Call for Stories flyer.
