Housing needs of asset-poor older Australians: other countries' policy initiatives and their implications for Australia - AHURI
AHURI’s second Positioning Paper explores housing options and actual housing circumstances of asset-poor older Australians. Australia has very high levels of outright ownership among its pensioners. However, this is threatened by falling levels of ownership among younger age cohorts and increasing numbers of owners approaching retirement with mortgages.
Housing assistance, social inclusion & people with disabilities - AHURI
The Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) has released two Positioning Papers. The first release focuses on housing assistance, social inclusion and people with disabilities.
Since 2007 there have been a number of changes in the focus of public policy in Australia. Paramount among these changes has been a renewed focus on three key areas: housing, disability and social inclusion, and the interconnectedness of, and interrelationships between, these three, and other policy spheres.
Australia’s Health 2010
Australia's health 2010 is the 12th biennial health report of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare. It's the nation's premier source of statistics and informed commentary on: determinants of health and keys to prevention; diseases and injury; how health varies across population groups; health across the life stages; health services, expenditure and workforce; the health sector's performance.
