Housing Now! Conference 2024

The 2023 Housing Now! Conference was a big success. Joined by key government decision makers from the NSW Premier, The Minister for Planning & Public Spaces and the Minister for Housing. 

A gathering of more than 280 people, the collaboration of peak bodies across development, social housing, alliances & unions. A force in unison, propelling huge movement in the housing space and alignment with the NSW Government to reach our ambitious goals to address the housing crisis.

Although it was met with resistance from communities and associations, it is critical to continue advocating for housing, making it accessible and affordable for all. To which we are excited to announce the 2024 Housing Now! Conference on Wednesday 11 September 2024. This event will be opened by the NSW Premier, The Hon Chris Minns MP.  

There are several key priority areas which require immediate focus and action; adequate social housing, better zoning and planning systems, more capacity in the construction sector, and a taxation system that supports supply and affordability.  

The Housing Now! half-day Conference brings Government, experts, community and industry leaders together to face the challenge head-on, find innovative ways to eliminate obstacles to housing growth and to banish the NIMBY culture that threatens to pull up the ladder from the grasp of future generations. We believe that by fostering innovation, responsibility, and unity, NSW can build a brighter future where every resident has access to safe, affordable, and sustainable housing. 

The housing crisis is a collective problem in need of collective solutions – harnessing all levels of government, the private sector and the not‑for‑profit sector. 

We hope you can join us.
