Victorian Universities Regional Research Network (VURRN)
The Victorian Universities Regional Research Network (VURRN) brings together representatives from Victorian universities, major research centres, and partners that share a research interest in regional and rural Australia.
VURRN members share a research interest in regional and rural Australia. In addition, other people with an interest in rural and regional matters, such as those in government and service provision are welcome to join the Network. VURRN holds regular meetings in-person and online discussing matters related to health, economic, and community development sectors. The aim of these meetings is to seek collaborations on research projects and build long term partnerships between members and the broader community to enhance the development and ongoing viability of regional and rural communities.
