Intro: How to Increase Access to Housing
Update: 2023-05-24
Description
Over the past two years, we've interviewed 100+ people for our podcast, The Deep End. Now we're relaunching The Deep End as a multi-media publication, focused on problems worth solving.
In the first series, we are tackling an issue that affects us all: access to housing. Our house provides us with a sense of belonging and serves as a sanctuary where we can retreat from the chaos of the world. Once we accept the importance of housing, our focus needs to shift to how we can make it more accessible.
We kick off the series with an introduction to housing as a problem. We look into why it's a problem worth solving and what are the bottlenecks to doing so – technology, culture, regulation, and more.
Then, over the next few weeks, we talk to Lauren Lorraine Self from Roots Homes, Kim-Mai Cutler from Initialized, Will Jarvis from ValueBase, Peter Light from Lumen Energy and Riley Meik to understand the bottlenecks to housing, and explore possible solutions.
Through this, we try to form a mental map of the problem: understanding its societal importance, the current bottlenecks to progress and setting out some of the most impactful solutions.
In doing so, we hope to give the audience the tools and knowledge to build, invest or support some of the solutions to these challenges.
Housing is not an easy problem to solve, but we believe it is a problem worth solving.
So let’s get going.
