ALGA invites you to complete the second online Ageing awareness and action survey. The survey aims to gauge awareness of population ageing within local government and to determine the level of local government action on population ageing issues.
The information collected from the survey will assist ALGA in its negotiations with Australian Government and to build the capacity of local government to plan for an ageing population.
Consolidated results will be made available on ALGA's website.
Thank you in advance for your participation.
