Ending Homelessness in Australia: A Journey through Research Insights

During Homelessness Week (7-13 August) and as the Australian Government's National Housing and Homelessness Plan begins to take shape, CSI UWA Director, Professor Paul Flatau takes a retrospective look at CSI research on homelessness and what it tells us about the way forward to ending homelessness in Australia.

CSI research has investigated the issues that perpetuate homelessness, the many different homelessness journeys people follow and the opportunities to improve the homelessness and housing support system. Join us as we unpack this complex problem and look into how research informs what is required to end homelessness in Australia.
