With the election of a new Federal Government and national funding agreements up for renewal, now is the right time to debate, discuss and consider the future of housing assistance in Australia. Over the course of the day, this national conversation will examine the following:

• Political leadership and the future of housing assistance

• Strategies for increasing the supply of affordable housing
• Strategies for improving tenancy management and support
