Find out all about the collaborations, services, and projects ALGIM Australia will undertake on behalf of its members.
Its goal is to make a difference for Councils to reduce costs and improve services.
While it’s mission is to “bring people and technology together to deliver better local government services”, it also wants to give back to the sector through study grants, education and learning opportunities.
It belongs to a coalition of eight countries of local authorities to bring an international perspective on learnings from others and is governed by a Board of nine Australian Councils.
