The Housing Justice Essentials series.

Australia is experiencing a steadily and rapidly increasing housing crisis.

Home ownership is out of reach to most. Fewer people can afford a decent rental. For almost 20 years now, the number of people who experience homelessness in Australia has been steadily increasing.

Why are we here?

What can we do about it?

Housing Justice Essentials is a series of 21 short workshops designed to facilitate a collective exploration of the housing issues in Australia and the necessary features of a more just society.

Skye and Christine have designed this workshop series drawing on their lived, professional, advocacy, and research experience with issues of housing justice.

Despite, or because of, Christine and Skye’s decades of experience in working with homelessness and housing issues they still have many questions about how housing justice might be achieved in Australia. Skye and Chris look forward to learning alongside you and collectively moving towards something better!

These sessions are open to anyone - experienced with issues of housing justice or not.

Feel free to join for one, for some, or for all.

Housing Justice Essentials workshop sessions are held fortnightly via zoom

Wednesdays, 4-5 pm AEST
