Podcasts about homelessness week

Every year, Homelessness Week is held with the goal of bringing attention to the difficulties that more than 122,000 Australians face when they become homeless on any given night. "Homelessness Action Now" is the theme for Homelessness Week in 2024. Australians who may not have imagined they would face financial difficulties are turning to support services for assistance as the country's growing cost of living continues to put financial strain on its citizens. Joining me in the discussion about Homelessness Week is Sonya Tufnell, the Senior Fundraising Manager at Orange Sky to talk about high cost of living affecting many Australian households. - Her sal, Hefteya Bêwariyê bi mebesta ku balê bikişîne ser dijwariyên ku zêdetirî 122,000 Australî di her şevekê de bêwar dibin tê lidarxistin. Australîyên ku dibe ku xeyal nedikirin ku ew ê di tengasiyên aborî re rû bi rû bimînin, serî li karûbarên piştgiriyê didin ji bo alîkariyê ji ber ku zêdebûna lêçûna jiyanê ya welêt berdewam dike ku tengasiya aborî li hemwelatiyên dibe.

Acknowledgement of Country//Headlines//Amelia Leavesley, University of MelbourneAmelia Leavesley is a Research Fellow in Urban Sustainability at the Melbourne Centre for Cities. Her research focuses on urban climate policy and governance, sustainability transitions and local implementation of global sustainability frameworks. She's here to talk about her last article which unpacked how understanding ‘tobacco tactics' can help fight the global plastic waste crisis, because the reality is plastic production is growing faster than we can recycle it.//Ariel Slamet Ries,  Alison Evans, and Jinghua Qian We play a speech from this past Sunday's Free Palestine Rally,  from outside the State Library Vic. Ariel Slamet Ries (Illustrator and Author), Alison Evans (Author), and Jinghua Qian (Writer and Critic), three writers who, along with Omar Sakr, had their Teen Bootcamp writing workshops terminated earlier this year by SLV. They speak about the hypocrisy of 'cultural safety', precarious employment and political censorship of artists and writers, and taking back our public institutions and our voices!// Stop LAPD Spying Coalition - Part 2 We will hear Part 2 of an interview Priya did last month with Stop LAPD Spying Coalition's Hamid Khan and Matyos Kidane. This week's excerpt includes a dicussion of the group's abolitionist ethos and structural analysis of violence, as well as the importance of demystifying predictive and data-driven policing techniques. Listen back to the first part of our conversation and all our past shows at 3cr.org.au/thursday-breakfast. // Abdullah Al Zubaer EvanAbdullah Al Zubaer Evan joins us to talk the recent student-led mass protests in Bangladesh, which while met with violent state repression have led to the overthrow of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The situation continues to develop with tensions over the establishment of a genuinely democratic successor government. Evan is a PhD student at RMIT University investigating the implication of citizenship rights for ethnic minority Biharis in Bangladesh. // LIVE - RAHU's 2024 Homelessness Week protest Housing Crisis Survival Expo, coordinated by the Renters and Housing Union's North branch and established on the nature strip in the middle of St Georges Road in Preston early this week.//    

Folks may know this week's guest, Justin DeLeeuw, via his gold toilets which have been spotted around Preston and most consistently on Google Maps at 'Modern Art - Not a Fan', a rather interesting parcel of grass on a median strip on St Georges Road. Justin and other assorted activists, including members of the Renters and Housing Union (RAHU), have all this week slept out in gold tents at the site as part of the Housing Crisis Survival Expo - a Homelessness Week event raising awareness and encouraging conversations about creative solutions to the crisis, including squatting and dumpster diving. They have been having good chats with students across the road at the Polytechnic and other assorted locals have stopped by with food and conversation. Justin was born in '71 Adelaide and has a lived experience of homelessness. He is a pointillist tattooist, a portrait painter and recycle auditor. He knows about all the crap people put in the wrong bin! Justin got into the rave scene in Lismore area as an art installator and is planning an entry to the next Birdman Rally. Maybe a flying house? We love Justin's style and it was great having him on the show this week. Keep up the great work, Justin!@xak_and_baba

We sure wish Duff would write a book about his stay in an abandoned resort behind Cape Tribulation and his cosying-up with a cassowary. We might have to settle for his sci-fi, end of the earth epic about 4 blokes who return from the forest to find they are the last humans alive. In Warrnambool. Those old enough may know Duff as the fella who pie-faced himself then kissed Premier Stephen Bracks at the opening of the 2001 International Comedy Festival. It was Duff's humurous attempt to get back at the Premier for basically encouraging Victoria Police to bludgeon the crowd at the World Economic Forum protests / S11 a little while earlier. Greg paid a high price for his stunt, with it costing him comedy gigs and a history re-write. Greg hit his straps as an activist at the Jabiluka protests. He grew up on a sheep farm in Warrnambool with a very humorous brother, he's been a lab rat, he writes books, he squats around the place and says the mission in life is to achieve peace within yourself. He is currently gearing up for some action for Homelessness Week. It was great to have him on. He's a good egg. Thanks, Duff!Duff and friend, Jeanie, in the 3CR courtyard. They were both Barak Beacon activists.

Earlier this week, Nicholas co-authored a Conversation piece with Edward Santow and Sophie Farthing, head of the Policy Lab at the Human Technology Institute, which provided further insights into the tech sector's backflip on regulation and the issue of enforcing both existing and future regulatory mechanisms in the face of increasingly widespread AI use across various sectors of Australian industry and society.

This week is Homelessness Week and the focus is on those who are forced to sleep in streets and parks on a nightly basis. However, the attention can sadly be taken away from the ‘invisible homeless', referring to people who have fallen on hard times, who find refuge in their car or on friend's couches. They may not look homeless, but they have nowhere to call home.  Ian Ugarte, founder of Small Is The New Big, suggests ‘Mum and Dad investors’ can help the 'invisible homeless' by converting investment properties into micro-apartments. He joins John Stanley to further explain the proposed solution.  See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
