Please Note - On 27 August 2015 the Association's name was changed to Charity Law Association of Australia and New Zealand. A new Linkedin company page will need to be set up for this change - Charity Law Association of Australia and New Zealand - CLAANZ. Website: claanz.org.au Contact: admin@claanz.org.au
The Australian Charity Law Association was established in 2009 in response to the emerging need for accountable, charity-related legal services in Australia. The Association is registered as a charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC).
The Association’s aim is to provide a forum for professionals, academics and charity and not-for-profit (NFP) employees or volunteers who have an interest in charity and NFP law to increase their knowledge in this area and, as a consequence, raise the standard of legal assistance provided to charities and NFP organisations. This education is provided through seminars and conferences conducted by members as well as international and Australian guest speakers.
