LPSA’s main website —Decentralization.Net— is free and open to both members as well as non-members alike.

In March 2025, LPSA launched its Member Portal — located at localpublicsector.org. There are several advantages to registering as a LPSA member, including—but not limited to—receiving our newsletter; registering for—and taking part in—working groups; being listed in our online member directory (if you wish); and access to online discussion forums on issues related to decentralization and localization. In addition, membership gives you access to LPSA Online Courses.

All members / subscribers should expect to receive our bimonthly newsletter. In addition, based on your interests, you can register to receive updates from specific Regional and Thematic Working Groups.

Once logged in, you will have access to the full range of member benefits that LPSA’s Member Portal has to offer.

The Member Portal User Manual provides a full overview of the services that can be accessed through the Member Portal.
