The Papua New Guinea Urban Local Level Government Association (PNGULLGA) represents urban local government in Papua New Guinea. It is recognised in law and membership of the association is mandatory for all urban LLGs. PNGULLGA aims to encourage and protect effective and efficient democratic local government in the urban areas. The association is funded by membership contributions. The association is viewed as an NGO and does not receive any direct grants from central government to support its operations; however, funding support may be provided if requested on a case-by-case basis.
