As part of its objectives to promote the science, practice and education of psychology, CPA is involved in a number of advocacy and government relations activities on behalf of psychology as a discipline and its members. These activities include producing submissions to government, working closely with other stakeholder groups, as well as launching strategic communications and media campaigns. In addition, we have embarked on a series of meet and greets with federal members of Parliament to talk about issues that are relevant to the discipline and to share our unique perspective on current government activities such as committee work and bills under review.
