I love working at universities! Always had inspiring colleagues 😍 and students 🤩 committed to exploring big ideas. I just wish the sector would stop ripping-off passionate staff with short contracts, underpayment and unhealthy workloads. @NTEUnion @NTEUVictoria

40 years ago a group of young urban researchers and started a journal… it’s guided our understanding of cities ever since. Congratulations @UPRJournal (check out the back catalogue-you’ll be amazed at how much has changed and how much has stayed the same)

This is massive news and something really important we've been pushing for for years. Congrats Kirsty and ECNT for all your work on this.

♥️🌹Vale Professor Judy Yates - Australia’s respected expert on housing economics and housing policy reform and friend to many women in housing research. Judy passed away Friday but her expertise and commitment will continue to inspire and inform a better housing future for all.

Reading with interest and sympathy @HillThalisAUP reports of projects rejected in planning stage. No doubt these DA denials are very frustrating for proponents. But not sure that architects dumping on planners as a profession or vice versa is really the way forward. 1/9

Disappointing indeed that @emfarrelly so dispatched from #smh. There is already scant consideration of city making, sustainable urbanism & architecture in our media - to our great cost as so many live in cities. Rather than loosing such a strong voice, we need many more!

I really hope we don't get to the end of this #4Corners episode without noting that rapidly growing housing asset prices are 1. global, and 2. the intended effect of low interest rate monetary policy.

I am so happy I want to cry. Thank you @NSWHealth! The #Sydneyolympicpark #covid19 #vaccination center is one of the most impressive logistical things I've ever seen. This is what we get when we prioritize competence in government. I am in awe.

Less than one in every $10 of public money spent on housing goes to housing people on low incomes. Much of the rest - like the capital gains discount - subsidises housing owned by the wealthiest Australians. #EverybodysHome theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Important thread on racism 👇🏽 I've never been to a 'partners included business conference', so I'm assuming it's an upper class thing, just as @TracyWesterman was saying - the most privileged hating on the most disadvantaged, it's disgusting 🤮 not classy. Stop punching down.
