POSTPONED: QUT Centre for Justice Real Housing Seminar Series

Due to the impacts of Cyclone Alfred, QUT Centre for Justice has postponed our first QUT Real Housing Seminar Series #QUTRealHousing

Australia is in the midst of a housing supply crisis.  The National Housing Accord has a target of 1.2 million new homes to be built by mid-2029.  Is this really achievable? 

In this first seminar, industry and QUT housing experts will highlight Australia’s housing supply challenges and discuss innovative solutions to bringing on more supply, more quickly.

This event will also launch QUT’s Housing Security Research Group and its AHURI Research Centre.
