Participants in the 2005 CSW RDLN Panel: Julie Moss Shirley McClain Anita LaRan Shirley Sherrod Evelyn Conley Starry Krueger, Moderator
Women from Asia, Africa, North America, Europe, and Australia joined the dialogue with the RDLN participants, speaking from the experience of their respective countries, cultures, and organizations. These women strongly supported the idea, suggested by RDLN, of developing a special Platform for Action for rural women on the grounds that most of the world’s women live in rural areas, yet their voices are seldom heard in policy-making arenas.

RDLN organized a delegation of forty-plus women representing rural communities that traveled to the Beijing conference in 1995 and presented a series of workshops and cultural events.
