NEWS FROM THE PROJECT
Merger announcement: Australian Alliance to End Homelessness and the Constellation Project
The Constellation Project is an independent organisation that drives multi-sector collaboration with those directly impacted by homelessness to deliver smart solutions.
We exist to increase the supply of safe, affordable homes for people in Australia on low to moderate incomes.
We also develop accessible pathways that help people to exit homelessness or avoid it in the first place.
Our
Approach
Developing solutions with those who know
Our project brings those directly impacted by homelessness together with services, business, government and academia to inform change. Lived experience voices and insights are core to our approach to systems change. Constellation aims to make sure that the diverse insights of people with lived experience are present at all levels of our organisation, from the board, through the executive team, into the project teams and across all our events and workshops.
First Nations Led
The Constellation Project is committed to pursuing the housing needs and interests of First Nations peoples and having their insights cut across all of our efforts.
It's all about long term impact.
To successfully end homelessness in a generation, we must completely change the system that produces it to begin with. Each project is a step towards this, as we leverage collaboration across sectors to produce feasible plans, models and strategies for implementation.
What we do
right skills and backgrounds to discover and test solutions
that work towards ending homelessness.
