Just published in Housing Studies on how social housing orgs are navigating social media to engage tenants & others. We show how agendas of tenant participation, advocacy, and marketing, pose challenges for housing providers in digital spaces tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

How do social housing providers navigate social media? It's a space for marketing, advocacy, & tenant communication & engagement - but these sometimes conflict. Check out Jenna Condie & Liz Ayres on how community housing providers navigate the space tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Interesting keynote paper by Emma Power on cities of care ACRN-SOAC. How is care infrastructurally organised? - great question #SOAC2023

So excited to be here for Emma Power’s keynote on Cities of Care. Uses eg of public housing residents neglected/stigmatised during forced lockdowns.

By contrast, to think with care is to bring attention to ethical/political dimensions of care (eg whose needs?)

We have a new report out on public housing relocations. I worked on this with a bunch of champions 🙏

YIMBY or NIMBY? Both are worse. New piece by Alistair Sisson and me for Arena Publications arguing that any prospect of radical transformation of Australia’s housing system requires a clean break from the #NIMBY vs #YIMBY binary. arena.org.au/yimby-or-nimby…

Cam McAuliffe & I have a new piece in Urban Geography on informality from above. We show how state governance of graffiti is as much driven by aesthetics as by the enforcement of law, and is pursued through formal and informal interventions. Freebies here: protect-au.mimecast.com/s/Y3JwCWLVXkU6…

The 1st of our Urban Governance Innovation eps is out (ltd edn hosted by City Road Podcast and ACCESS geog&enviro !) Ep1 featuring me and Tom Baker on city innovation units can be found @ cityroadpod.org/2023/11/20/inn…. Next ep Robyn Dowling and Sophia Maalsen on design thinking and UGI.

Feels a bit strange to share this here but Alistair Sisson and I have a new paper out in IJHP Editors. About housing and settler colonialism and why reparations is a potentially useful framework for rethinking housing justice. Open access too!
