Regional Development Australia - Orana

We build relationships with stakeholders and work in partnership with our communities to drive economic development, investment and diversification.

Regional Development Australia - Orana is part of a national initiative based on building partnerships and ensuring that all governments and stakeholders are responsive to local priorities and needs. It is a conduit between government and local communities, and a provider of information.

We are a non-profit community-based organisation, led by a committee appointed by both State and Federal ministers responsible for regional development.

Our work falls into five major categories, guided by a regional plan. These are: business investment, economic growth and diversification, workforce development, improved infrastructure, whole-of-government policy and planning.
