Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute
The Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) is a national not-for-profit independent network organization that funds, conducts, disseminates, and tailors research on housing and homelessness. AHURI aims to deliver policy-relevant information for better housing and urban development across Australia. The organisation's funding is received from state and territory government grants, contributions from partner universities, and third parties.[1] AHURI has 15 university partners that cluster into seven research centres across Australia.
Reports
In 2021, the AHURI released a report on the effect climate change will have on indigenous housing.[2] The conclusions attributed a lack of fit-for-purpose housing in Aboriginal communities, especially in summer, will force people to leave their traditional lands. In the same year AHURI examined census data to draw conclusions and make forecasts about home affordability.[3]
