How do Nordic countries make housing affordable?
from Follow The Money Hosted by The Australia Institute
Australia’s housing affordability crisis results from over- reliance on just two options – private home ownership and private renting. To tackle it, a wider repertoire of policies is required. Nordic nations’ widespread provision of public housing and housing co-operatives, priority for homes to live in rather than invest in, and effective reduction of homelessness, show how this can happen. This was recorded on 3rd May 2022 and things may have changed since recording.
