Under One Blue Roof

By: Maroushka Saldanha
  • Summary

  • Systems change requires new ways of thinking and doing to create a thriving world. We live in a time of interconnected crises - climate change, rising inequality and rapid urbanisation are urgently challenging our present and future. In Australia there are already more than 122,000 people without a safe, secure place to call home, and a chronic shortage of affordable housing. Join me in conversation with experts in the field as we unpack the relationship between homelessness and our changing climate. Together, we tell stories of our connection to place and planet as home.
