In its work RWICS hopes to link with individuals and organizations working to improve the situation of rural women and to help to bring the recommendations of rural women forward to decision-makers. [...] The purpose of the workshop was to offer women the opportunity to become familiar with the national Report’s recommendations and determine other recommendations and follow- up action for Saskatchewan. [...] The study was funded by the Women’s Health Bureau of Health Canada with assistance from the Office of Rural Health (Health Canada) and the Institute for Gender and Health of the Canadian Institutes for Health Research. [...] The workshop was intended to bring together rural and urban women in a dialogue about recognition of and support for the leadership of rural women. [...] The event was advertised through a mail-out to RWICS participants, e-mails to RWICS participants and women’s organizations, a Coming Events notice in the Western Producer, display ads in the Davidson and Craik newspapers and posters and handouts given to organizations and other locations in Davidson.
