5th Australasian Housing Researchers' Conference (17-19 November 2010)

The economic downturn has given housing researchers an opportunity to rethink processes, practices and partnerships for future development, to meet the diverse needs of Australians and New Zealanders as we head into the second decade of the 21st century. The aim of the 2010 Australasian Housing Researchers’ Conference was to provide a forum in which housing researchers, practitioners and professionals could present, debate and explore the issues concerning housing in this challenging context.
Keynote speakers were:

• Bill Randolph, Professor, and Director of the City Futures Research Centre, University of New South Wales, who has thirty years' experience as a researcher on housing and urban policy issues in the academic, government, non-government and private sectors. (Podcast )
• David Thorns, Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the School of Social and Political Sciences, University of Canterbury, whose research interests include home and identity, housing policy, urban sustainability and globalisation. (Podcast )
• Kay Saville-Smith, Director at CRESA (Centre for Research Evaluation and Social Assessement), who specialises in applied social research and evaluation in housing, public policy and community development. (Podcast )
