This may be my favourite paper I've ever written! I loved working with @helenejuliaf unpack how #care functions in share houses during a pandemic. It was a privilege to capture that slice of time. Sharing and caring: housing in times of precarity tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
So many people put their hands up to share their knowledge, resources, insights & time to address #housingstress and #homelessness for #olderwomen. We met helpful bureaucrats and finance gurus, co-housing experts and policy wonks. So nice to build the tribe that'll take this on!
Some days work is an absolute, fill-my-cup pleasure and I am amazed that I get paid to do what I love w/ people that inspire the be-jeezus out of me 😍. Thanks to everyone who brought their ideas and enthusiasm to the #olderwomenshomelessness workshop today at @msdsocial
If you're an #olderwoman, #planner, #designer, #impactinvestor, #housingprovider, #familyviolence org or #policymaker, you may be interested in this event on housing solutions for older women, hosted by @msdsocial and funded by @MelbourneLMCF : eventbrite.com.au/e/26356295…
Care about #olderwomenshousing? Work in #agedcare or #healthcare for lower income women? If you're looking for or sharing ideas with people working across sectors to address homelessness we want to hear from you! Join a Uni Melb workshop on #solutions. eventbrite.com.au/e/26356295…
Thanks very much to Uni Melb @msdsocial for hosting and @MelbourneLMCF for funding this research. Thanks @rebecca_bentley and @chiarabroccatel for the collab!

It's great to hear @MicheleAcuto and @SaskiaSassen discuss the brutality of housing market in podcast form after watching the key note at the #housingassembly2021. Makes me think that 'we are all in this together' is far less cheery in the context of global finance
“can you kill a city?” 🏚 some not-so-festive listening on #housing for my conversation with @SaskiaSassen at this year’s @msdsocial symposium hosted by @AH_unimelb

So pleased to have our work on #affordablehousing #negotiations published and out in the world. We call for #inclusionaryzoning and argue that a lack of framework is making negotiations almost impossible in Melbourne w lessons for the US.
How do uneven negotiating powers stymie affordable housing development? Authors @katrinaeve @gmw_unimelb and @drmattpalm research negotiation theory’s impact on voluntary affordable housing programs. #JAPAplanning @APA_Planning bit.ly/3IYHnr8
For me, there have been 5 key take-aways from the #housingassembly2021 on the #socialvalueofhousing so far. What have I missed?

4. Institutional Capacity
We need to 'get our data ducks in a row' to measure and articulate social value and do post-occupancy evaluation. We need consistent policy and funding and leadership from all levels of govt. We need regulations that are enforceable and holistic.

A pleasure to co-convene @UniMelb #housingassembly2021 panel on #Accessibility, #Affordability & #Agency in #Housing for People with #Disability today #socialvalueofhousing

ALT An illustrated narrative of the key discussion points from the panel, with a four quadrants broken into accessibility, affordability, agency and conclusions including: disability is for all of us (households, not individuals) (Margaret), not being able to communicate what I want doesn't mean I don't know what I want (Michael/Libby), good home design keeps us out of institutions (Ben) and nothing about us without us (Jonathan)
Thanks @MargWard for your insight. "While we are doing SDA we are continuing the otherness of people w disabilities. We are all temporarily abled." We need an entire housing system that anyone can access w dignity. Thanks for stretching my brain Marg. #housingassembly2021

I loved convening this session on the #socialvalueofhousing w @FloraArchitect, Mitra Anderson-Oliver, @_LauraMahoney + Sarah. Picking up themes of health, well-being, connection and the importance of data, participation + measurement. #HousingAssembly2021
What a cracker session at #housingassembly2021! Takeaways on ensuring social value + care is central to the #BigHousingBuild: 1) diverse housing models w diverse levels of affordability 2) reforms co-produced w lived experience 3) best-practice co-produced design guidance
