Project Summary

This is the third and final research project arising from the AHURI-funded Inquiry into developing a long-term governance and resource framework for sustainable and effective Indigenous housing. The research uses the term ‘Indigenous’ when referring to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Australia’s federal, state and territory governments asked for and funded this research to provide policymakers and practitioners with comprehensive evidence and recommendations to support the future of Indigenous housing in Australia.

The Inquiry was undertaken between 2023 and 2025 by a team of researchers from the University of Adelaide, the University of Sydney, UNSW Sydney, Curtin University, the University of Tasmania, and the Menzies School of Health Research.
