Leandro Stewart-Usher

Leandro started his career as a campaign strategist & political organizer in Argentina, where he studied political science & international relations. He is also a graduate of the LCN's Leadership, Organizing, & Action, and the Public Narrative Coach Training programs. He has worked with local governments, not-for-profits, and foreign missions, to create international exchange programs to support the development of young leaders from economically disadvantaged backgrounds through engagement in sporting activities.

Now he lives on Whadjuk Noongar country. Since 2023 he has been actively involved in campaigns for the recognition of First Nations sovereignty, like the Voice Referendum campaign in Australia and working as a member of the Mindeera Advisory Group at a local level. As a WA Labor and AMWU member, he has worked as a Field Organizer and Campaign Manager at the last State and Federal election campaigns, and was an elected Delegate to the party's State Conference.

Leandro is passionate about multiculturalism, social justice, & organized labour. His favourite thing about organizing is creating a strong sense of community, and coaching others to help them unlock their potential for relationship building.
When he's not organizing or coaching, he spends his time walking along the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River), or playing drums.
