Regional Development Australia Adelaide

Regional Development Australia (RDA) is a national government initiative that seeks to strengthen and grow the regions and has been setup as a partnership between the Australian, state and territory and local governments. 

Within South Australia there are eight RDA Boards, consisting of RDA Adelaide, and seven regional entities: RDA Barossa, RDA Far North, RDA Hills and Coasts, RDA Limestone Coast, RDA Murraylands & Riverland, RDA Yorke and Mid North, and RDA Eyre Peninsula.

RDA Adelaide is funded only by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications, with a direct Commonwealth Government reporting relationship.  It seeks to create economic development growth across the whole of regional South Australia as supporting opportunities within and across the seven other South Australian RDA regions.

Vision

A vibrant and prosperous regional South Australia with strong connections to its Capital City that enables world-leading social, economic and environmental living conditions for all of our regional communities

To strengthen regional South Australia by fostering positive and productive relationships and engagement between the South Australian RDA’s; different levels of government; industry; academia and community
