Abstract – Tuhinga Whakarāpopoto

This working paper is a critical review of rangatahi Māori and housing policy in Tāmaki Makaurau, forming part of the research project ‘He tātai whetu ki te rangi, he rangatahi ki te kāinga: Rangatahi pathways to safe, secure and affordable homes’. The review was prepared by and for BBHTC’s rangatahi team to identify the gaps and opportunities in the current housing system, provide a brief overview of why we need to consider rangatahi Māori in housing policy, and identify areas for further research.
