Livewire - Young Professionals in Local Government Member Forum

The Young Professionals in Local Government (YPinLG) Network was established to support young professionals working in local government throughout NSW. YPinLG promotes creative and interactive networking, professional development opportunities, and identification of career planning prospects within LG.

An eclectic group attracting members from all occupations in LG, the Network is designed for, and led by, professionals under 40. This age limitation ensures the Network is focused on enhancing young talent in LG and remains responsive to its members. The Network is designed to promote the needs of its members, so if you have a suggestion or would like to raise an issue simply add a discussion thread below or contact one of the Executive Members (under “Project Team”).
