This issue is a special issue, edited by Alistair Harkness, based on a rural-focused workshop attended by about two dozen scholars held in February, 2019 at the Gippsland campus of Federation University in Victoria, Australia. This workshop was funded by The Academy of the Social Science in Australia, with participants coming from many different universities and an equal diversity of disciplines. To quote Alistair Harkness from the editor’s introduction:

“This Workshop, I believe, serves as an exemplar of the unity of purpose of cross-disciplinary, cross-jurisdictional colleagues with an interest in improving circumstances and outcomes for rural communities, and perhaps might be a model that could be replicated in various other jurisdictions.”

I hope you enjoy reading all of the contributions over the holidays.
