Welcome to the Western Australian Branch of ALGWA
Welcome to the web site of the WA Branch of the Australian Local Government Women's Association.
From the President
Re
flecting on the relatively short period I have been in position of President with ALGWA WA, I know we are well positioned with a clear focus of where we are going in 2012. Thanks to the time, energy and efforts of Committee members who participated in the Planning Session in late November.
The framework developed for our 2012/2013 Strategic Plan identifies ways we can partner with other organisations and associations on women’s issues and already thanks to the efforts of our energetic and effervescent Secretary, our communication ideas are being implemented.
Other new initiatives we are investigating include researching how to webcast speakers at events and making these available for rural members via our website; Skyping Rural and remote Committee members at our meetings and finding way to use Information Technology to reach our members and prospective members.
Our Facebook, Twitter and Blog accounts are up and running and I hope you will use them for the benefit of the organisations.
I look forward to meeting you all and working with you in 2012 as we continue to support the involvement of women in local government. My Christmas wish for you is one of peace and happiness and throughout the New Year.
Mayor Sue Doherty
City of South Perth
President, ALGWA WA
