A small group of women gathered at 9.00 a.m. on Monday, 29th April, at Nhill Lake to participate in Walk the World, an annual event that celebrates the values of the Associated Country Women of the World (ACWW).

This global organisation is the largest international association for rural women, boasting a membership of nine million across 82 countries.

Each year, women across the globe come together around the 29th of April to honour ACWW’s international network by walking together.

The Nhill event was one of many worldwide that aimed to foster community and promote the organisation’s commitment to rural women.
