No place called home

As people flock to the south east corner to enjoy our sensational climate and lifestyle, the Great Australian Dream is increasingly out of reach for many Queenslanders, and household affordability, public housing and homelessness are emerging as the most urgent issues in the growth management debate   How do policy-makers begin to tackle these challenges? What are the options for a new generation struggling to achieve the dream of a place to call their own? And what can we do in our own families and communities to help?

Join Growth Management Queensland CEO Paul Low, Brisbane Housing Company’s David Cant, Executive Officer for Queensland Shelter Adrian Pisarski, Mission Australia’s national homelessness and housing advisor Sean Lappin, and residential property expert Michael Matusik in a wide-ranging panel discussion covering topics such as trends in household and community planning, the changing face of social housing, the surprising new statistics on homelessness, and solutions for the growing number of people who have no place called home.
