5 – 6 August 2026, ACHIA NSW Aboriginal Housing Caucus 2026

About this event

ACHIA NSW invites you to the 2026 Aboriginal Housing Caucus, bringing together Aboriginal Community Housing Providers (ACHPs), sector leaders, and partners from across New South Wales to reflect, connect, and shape a future grounded in truth, Country and justice. This year’s theme, Echoes on the Wattle — Truth, Country & Housing Justice, speaks to the enduring strength of our communities and our collective responsibility to build a thriving housing future for Aboriginal people in NSW. Across two days on beautiful Bundjalung Country, we’ll gather to listen deeply, speak honestly, share knowledge, and build a self-determined path forward anchored in cultural integrity, community leadership, and long-term sustainability. The ACHIA NSW Aboriginal Housing Caucus is also home to our ACHIA NSW Aboriginal Community Housing Awards.
