Grateful for new social housing funding in Victoria, but we need the proper mix and quality!

Jacques speaks about housing - public, social, community, cooperative -with Abigail Lewis from local Think Tank Per Capita. Abigail (and PerCapita) make a strong argument for the inclusion of a strong proportionof public housing in the 5 Billion Dollar injection in the 'social'housing sector by the Victorian Government, as it is the most effectiveway to combat homelessness. She also points at the need to build housingof good quality responding to ecological criteria and to the varyingneeds and capabilities of intended groups of residents, for example,ageing groups or people with disability.
