The Country Women's Association (CWA) is a women's organisation in Australia, which seeks to advance interests of women, families, and communities in Australia, especially those in rural, regional, and remote areas.[1]
It comprises seven independent State and Territory Associations. Historically there was an national coordinating body, but this was discontinued in 2022 due to the availability of other communication mechanisms.[2]
