This group of volunteers is chaired by a Regional Development Australia (RDA) Wheatbelt member. Members represent community, industry partners, the university sector, finance/business sector and local government. This is an interim group to establish start up governance and strategy and determine the make-up of an ongoing governance oversight group. The RDA Wheatbelt Director Regional Development provides advice to the Reference Group but is not a voting member of the group.         

The Lumen WRUC Reference Group Members are active contributors to a diverse organisation of individuals working in a complex environment to deliver high value outcomes for the community and the region. Members leverage existing networks and develop new networks across industry sectors and are required to support the Chair to deliver the Lumen WRUC program.

The Group needs to be knowledgeable about the economic, social, cultural and environmental opportunities and challenges facing this program; be well connected and a strong advocate for their community; and draw their community together to deliver successful outcomes. Members are required to actively support committee governance and management processes.
