What can we learn from Auckland’s upzoning experiment? - ONLINE ONLY
Date

Housing affordability remains one of Australia’s most pressing policy challenges, with upzoning widely promoted as a key solution. But what actually happens when cities dramatically increase allowable density?
In this webinar, Dr Cameron Murray (Fresh Economic Thinking) examines the Auckland experience, often cited as a success story, and gives his views on how the popular “supply narrative” compares with the empirical evidence.
Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking session exploring what the Auckland case really tells us, and what it means for housing policy in Australia.
The webinar will be run over Zoom:
ESA QLD President Gene Tunny will MC the event, which will include time at the end for Q&A.
If you'd like to attend, please respect the Brisbane Rule developed by Brisbane Dialogues:
"All participants agree to listen carefully, speak respectfully and concentrate on the content of discussions, not on characters - before, during and afterwards, online as well as offline.”
