08 February 2010This Research Paper is the first output of a project that considers the question of the future of State Housing Authority (SHA) managed public housing and its capacity to address housing need and community sustainability in the 21st century. It adopts an historical and comparative perspective, drawing upon the Australian and UK literature on public housing policy and its role within broader housing systems.

Authors: Keith Jacobs, Rowland Atkinson, Angela Spinney, Val Colic-Peisker, Mike Berry and Tony Dalton.
