WALGA advocates on behalf of the Local Government sector to secure ongoing funding through budget allocations at a State and Federal level.
The Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA) is an independent, member-based, not-for-profit organisation representing and supporting the WA Local Government sector. Our membership includes all 139 Local Governments in the State. WALGA uses its influence, support and expertise to deliver better outcomes for WA Local Governments and their communities.
We are proactive, passionate and committed about providing the support Local Governments need to best serve their local communities. Our people are top tier, subject matter experts in the fields that matter to Local Governments: Employee Relations, Governance, Local Laws, Procurement and Tax Services advice.
Our experts provide policy input to State and Federal Government that ensures the Local Government perspective is heard.
Our expertise spans Member Services, Policy and Advocacy, all under one roof. We participate in and lead working/reference groups and committees and provide proactive solutions to Local, State and Federal Government.
