The research will be undertaken in three stages. 

Stage 1

Stage 1 comprises four projects operating in parallel, which will:

  • Undertake a comprehensive review of the literature relating to 21st Century housing careers in Australia and internationally;
  • Review and analyse existing data sets for insights into 21st Century housing careers.  These data sets will form a benchmark against which we can measure change captured in our own data collection; and
  • Undertake qualitative analysis of the housing preferences and consumption patterns of key consumer groups.  This will include early retirees, 25 to 34 year olds, youth et cetera.

Stage 2

The results from Stage 1 will be used in Stage 2 to frame a major data collection exercise – the Housing 21 Survey- alongside a process of consultation with key stakeholders about the Stage 1 findings.  Stage 2 will consist of the design, development, implementation and subsequent iterative analysis of this data set. 

Stage 3

In Stage 3 further qualitative analysis will be undertaken.  This additional stage will use a range of qualitative methods to investigate in greater depth some of the key issues and finding emerging from the Housing 21 Survey.
