Beyond the Crisis: Charting a Path to a Sustainable Housing Future
At the heart of a thriving, equitable society lies a fundamental truth: everyone deserves a safe and affordable home. Yet, with skyrocketing house prices and soaring rents, Australia’s housing system is leaving many behind and deepening inequality across our society.
Community Housing Providers are poised to play a key role in reversing this trend. We're calling for 1 in 10 homes to be social and affordable by 2045 to create an equitable and accessible housing market for everyone. Our esteemed panel will discuss the merits of this goal, and the implications for CHPs as well as broader housing policy in Australia. What is the road map to achieve the 1:10 ratio and what would our society look like economically and socially if we reach this goal?
