The Great Divide: Australia’s Housing Mess and How to Fix It | Summer Series

Our summer podcast series brings you some of the best conversations from our webinars and live events in 2023.

One of the great mysteries of Australian life is that a land of sweeping plains, with one of the lowest population densities on the planet, has a shortage of land for houses. As a result, Sydney’s median house price is the second most expensive on Earth, after Hong Kong’s. Alan Kohler discusses his latest essay and tells the story of how we got into this mess – and how we might get out of it.

This was recorded on Tuesday 28th November 2023 and things may have changed since recording.
