Accessing social housing data for planning and research: 2023 NSW Social Housing Assistance Commissioning Data Report

Tuesday 28 May 1:00-2:00pm AEST, online via MS Teams

Hosted by Family and Community Services Insights, Analysis and Research (FACSIAR)

Details

The Department of Communities and Justice has developed the latest annual NSW Social Housing Assistance Commissioning Data Report (2022/23) which improves the granularity, quality and accessibility of information available for service delivery planning. The data report presents a NSW wide overview of social housing assistance, including applications for social housing, social housing tenancies and private market assistance. It also provides information on existing social housing tenants needing to move, and a breakdown of demand in each area by bedroom and accessible housing need.

In this FACSIAR Lunch and Learn webinar, Emma Nicholson, Acting Executive Director, Policy and Regulation, Homes NSW will outline the HOMES NSW policy context. Despina Karlsson, Manager Social Housing Insights in Homes NSW, will present key features of the report and discuss how it can help to better utilise current housing stock and lead to improved tenant outcomes. Peter Reily, Director Organisational Performance, FACSIAR will describe other FACSIAR Housing data products and dashboards that are publicly available. Poppy Dowsett, Principle Portfolio Analyst, Housing Portfolio, Homes NSW will discuss using data for analysis of housing needs and opportunities across NSW.

This webinar will be chaired by Jessica Stewart (Executive Director, FACSIAR).
