Advocacy In Focus

Conquering Queensland’s housing crisis

Our six-point action plan to begin conquering the housing crisis.

Queensland local government and the road to 2032

All Queenslanders should benefit from the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Cost shift onto councils

From internet services and TV rebroadcasting to operating childcare and kindy and maintaining airports – councils step in wherever there is community need.

Community suggestions to address juvenile crime

Many Queensland communities are feeling the impact of juvenile crime - and councils are calling for immediate action.

Vote For Local

Queensland councils have issued a call to all sides of politics to back local communities by supporting grassroots initiatives to address cost of living, improve infrastructure, place community needs at the centre of the clean energy future, and other key solutions - or risk losing their vital support on polling day at this year’s State Election.

Fixing Queensland's trunk infrastructure funding framework

New research shows Queensland councils and their local communities face shouldering a $2.2 billion infrastructure funding black hole over the next four years.
