The 2026 RDA Stakeholder Survey is now open, and Regional Development Australia Tropical North is inviting our regional stakeholders to take part.

Now in its fourth iteration, the survey is an important reporting and evaluation activity for the national RDA network. It helps RDAs understand how effectively they engage with businesses, community organisations, government and other regional partners.

Feedback will also help identify what is working well, where engagement could be strengthened and how the Australian Government’s management and delivery of the RDA program can continue to improve.

WHY YOUR FEEDBACK MATTERS

If you have worked with or engaged with RDA Tropical North, your direct experience can provide valuable insight into our engagement, collaboration and contribution to the region.

A strong response from Tropical North Queensland will help ensure the experiences of our regional stakeholders are represented in the national findings.

All RDAs will receive a report summarising feedback across the network. Where more than five responses are received for an individual RDA, that RDA will also receive a local snapshot report.

INDEPENDENT AND CONFIDENTIAL

The survey is being independently managed for the Department by ARTD Consultants.

Responses will be kept strictly confidential. Final reports will contain de-identified information, and neither individual respondents nor the organisations providing feedback will be identified.

COMPLETE THE SURVEY

The survey takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete.

Responses close at 4pm AEST on Monday 21 September 2026.
