The Australian Local Government Women’s Association was formed to support and encourage women’s participation in Local Government as elected members and as council officers. As the peak body for women in local government ALGWA is the strong, collective voice for local democracy. It is the preeminent leader in a community of dynamic and passionate women in Local Government. We are committed to our intent of advancing leadership to enhance democracy for all Australians. Our membership, events and promotions, enable women at all levels to stay informed, connected and inspired. We are excited to lead change and create a strong, collective voice for our communities by the bringing together of extraordinary women from across the country.
