Young Labor is an active and vibrant organization open to all Party Members between 14 and 26 years of age.

As the youth wing of the ALP, Young Labor is involved in practical policy development. There’s an opportunity to debate issues you’re passionate about at forums, Young Labor meetings and at state convention. There’ll also be an opportunity to organise and attend social functions, meet new people and exchange ideas.

Young Labor also works with the Party towards the election of Labor governments. In Young Labor you will get the opportunity to work on election campaigns at state and federal levels. Young Labor can also open up opportunities. Many successful people in the Labor Party today got their start in Young Labor.

The Labor Environment Action Network is a grassroots network of ALP members who aim to:

• Influence the policies of the ALP and Labor parliamentary caucuses to support strong action on climate change and sustainability based on the science.
• Advocate moving to a low carbon economy in a way which reflects Labor’s values of social justice, decent work and strong communities.
• Engage and mobilise ALP members around climate change and sustainability.
• Develop dialogue and relationships with unions, business, think tanks, environmental NGOs and community organisations committed to action on sustainability and climate change
• Promote and grow LEAN and ALP membership throughout Australia

LEAN is a new way for people to become involved in and engage with the Party. We are non-factional, and welcome all Party members committed to learning more about climate change and taking action.

What LEAN does:

• Organises speakers for ALP Branch meetings to discuss climate change and sustainability
• Hold regular forums and discussions, often with prominent environmentalists.
• Circulate resolutions for consideration by branches to promote debate on environmental issues.
• Develop and campaign for the implementation of policies which reduce greenhouse gas emissions, create green jobs and support ecological sustainability.

COUNTRY LABOR

South Australia boasts an extraordinary wealth of diversity in its regions.

From the lush pastures of the South-East to the endless plains of the Outback, from the pristine beauty of Kangaroo Island to the industrial muscle of the Upper Spencer Gulf, from cropping country to the mighty Murray – country South Australia is filled with opportunity.

The Australian Labor Party understands the regions and their importance to the state.

The State Labor Government has backed the agricultural sector to grow production and exports by lowering business costs, supporting research and development, opening trade routes and building a stronger value-add chain of food and fibre processors.

We have stood up for the Murray and the needs of SA irrigators and tourism operators and protected the environment.
We have led the nation in initiatives such as the Plan for Accelerating Exploration (PACE), facilitating mining and energy projects and creating jobs in regional areas.

We will ensure the commercial fisheries sector has a long-term, sustainable future while also improving access for recreational fishing.

Labor listens to the community which is why regional residents are welcome to participate in Country Labor SA.
With regular meetings in regional areas and a biennial conference, Country Labor SA gives members the opportunity to shape policies and to build Labor’s presence in the regions.
If you are a country person (whether you live in the country or not) Country Labor invites you to be a part of the action.

The creation of a historic Paid Parental Scheme, changes to improve women’s retirement savings and replacing the draconian workplace laws with those which restore fairness to workers are all tangible examples of the ALP working towards improving women’s lives in Australia.

The Labor Women’s Network believes that encouraging women to participate in all levels of the Party’s structure, the government and public life is the best way to achieve policy outcomes that reflect the needs of women in the Australian community.

We work to increase the number of women active in the Labor Party and support the development of skills that assist women to participate in the Party at all levels.
