Growing Pains: Social and Affordable Housing Solutions in Queensland

Deconstruction

Michael and Emily are joined by Jackson Hills, Manager of Policy and Strategic Engagement at QShelter. Jackson is a tireless advocate for advancing policy based solutions addressing social and affordable housing needs and homelessness in Queensland. The episode explores the impact of population growth on housing and homelessness in Queensland and what steps QShelter are taking to influence solutions to housing need, the distinction between and importance of both social and affordable housing, the role of Build to Rent in supporting housing supply and affordability, the potential unintended consequences of the 2032 Olympics, growing up versus growing out and the need for a holistic approach beyond greenfield developments....and the list goes on. We learned so much talking to Jackson and are motivated to be apart of this important conversation and need.
