House Party!

Senator Barbara Pocock has undertaken a huge piece of work this year, chairing a Senate inquiry into our broken housing system. 

We’ve heard from experts, industry representatives, housing and homelessness service providers, and people on the frontline of the housing crisis. We’ve grilled the banks on their super profits, and uncovered the scale of the crisis we’re in. 

Unless something changes, we risk a future in which the only path to secure housing is inherited wealth. This is unacceptable. 

At the end of September we’ll publish the findings of the inquiry, and as anyone trying to find a rental, buy a home, or just keep up with the cost of housing can tell you: it’s clear we need urgent action. 

Our report will make a number of recommendations, and we’re calling on the Government to implement them as a matter of priority.  

Join Senator Barbara Pocock and special guests to launch the report, and the next stage of the Greens’ campaign for safe and secure housing for all. 

Featuring:

• Senator Barbara Pocock, Greens spokesperson for Housing & Homelessness

• Chels Hood Withey, founder of grassroots housing justice organisation HouseYou

• Uncle Moogy Sumner, Kaurna and Ngarrindjeri elder

• Naomi Keyte (music)

• All Absurd (music)

• and opportunities to get involved in the campaign!

This event is a moment of reflection, celebration, and call to action. We hope to see you there!
