The Future of Home
Just released, our Future of Home book brings to life what our future housing system could look like. It’s the culmination of over seven years of research by TACSI and other organisations just like us all over the world. Our hope is that this book stimulates the collective imagination of what could be, and how we might join up all the innovative work currently being conducted on the margins to build a better housing system.
Wiyi Yani U Thangani (Women’s Voices): Securing Our Rights, Securing Our Future Report 2020
The Wiyi Yani U Thangani engagement process and this report is grounded in the right of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls to self-determination. For indigenous peoples globally, many of whom are constantly having to negotiate the recognition of their unique rights as distinct peoples within colonised nations, the right to self-determination is highly significant. Despite the commitment of nations to the right of self-determination, indigenous peoples globally continue to struggle to have their unique and distinct rights recognised.
