A record number of local government leaders are expected to attend the historic 30th National General Assembly in Canberra from 2-4 July.
Around 1200 mayors, shire presidents and councillors from across Australia will converge in the capital for the annual conference, being held at the National Convention Centre.
This year’s theme is Building Community Trust, which aims to explore the critical importance of trust in governments, between governments, its institutions and citizens, acknowledging trust as a fundamental building block of our nation’s democracy.
There is also a new addition to the 2024 program, with four concurrent listening sessions providing you with the opportunity to have your say about federal policies affecting our communities. These sessions will be held directly after the Regional Forum on before the NGA officially commences on Wednesday morning.
This year’s NGA will lead into the Australian Council of Local Government on Friday 5 July, and ALGA is thrilled to once again be partnering with the Federal Government to host the ACLG event.
