Advocating for Co-op Housing at Co-op Assembly 2025 in Sydney

This morning Liz Thomas speaks at the Co-op Assembly 2025 in Sydney, Australia.

Focusing on the important role housing co-operatives play in Australia and ACHA’s goal of securing 10% of Australia’s social housing as co-op housing.

Under the global theme “Co-operatives Build a Better World,” IYC2025 recognises the critical role co-operatives play in creating sustainable, resilient communities. The UN has once again acknowledged that co-operatives are essential partners in addressing global challenges and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

As a champion of co-operative housing in Australia, ACHA is privileged to celebrate this milestone alongside co-ops worldwide. We join the movement in raising awareness, fostering innovation, and advocating for policies that enable co-operatives to thrive.

IYC2025 is an opportunity to:


✅ Highlight the impact of co-operatives in sustainable development
✅ Strengthen the movement through capacity-building and partnerships
✅ Champion supportive policies for co-op innovation and entrepreneurship
✅ Inspire the next generation to shape a more inclusive future
