Renters Forum- Sydney

Community Voices Renters Forum for Sydney

The Sydney Alliance and Tenant's Union of NSW are organising a consultation forum in partnership with the NSW Rental Commissioner, Trina Jones. 

We have the opportunity to share our experiences as renters, in particular around access to rental homes, cost of living, affordability, energy and climate.  This will be a forum focused on renters' experiences and perspectives on solutions.

Who will be attending?

• People who rent in Sydney who will share their experiences, reflections and give input into solutions as the participants of the forum. Renters across Sydney are welcome to attend. 
• People who may not be currently a renter but want to support renters. They will support the logistics of the forums and may bring renters in their families or communities to attend.
• The NSW Rental Commissioner, the department, and local Members of Parliament who have the responsibility to listen to their constituencies about their rental experiences.
