Melbourne: Embedding Human Rights in Housing and Climate Action

Description

Greater Melbourne is projected to reach a population of 8 million by 2050: a growth which will considerably add to the existing demand for affordable housing. Notwithstanding this significant population increase, Australia’s national government has committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

This study examines how the built environment stakeholders, including the capital municipality of Melbourne, are responding to the challenge of growing urbanisation, affordable housing demand, and the need to advance the city’s transition towards (social and environmental) sustainability.
