Rural Women Making Change (RWMC) is a Community University Research Alliance (CURA) funded in 2005 by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. The five year program supports rural women's projects for change in many settings of their living and working. RWMC researchers include women working in the National Farmers' Union Women's Committee (Saskatoon), Canadian Auto Workers Local 88 Women's Committee (Ingersoll), Women Today of Huron (Goderich), the Women's Employment Resources Centre (Woodstock), academics at five Canadian universities and women working in policy processes in different areas of government. Eight research teams are engaging partners and collaborators in three areas: Rural women's organizations as intermediaries; Rural women's and girls' everyday experience; Gender and rural policy in trans-local arenas.
