With rising rents and a lack of social housing, homelessness is escalating, particularly affecting 122,000 women, children, and Indigenous Australians.
Many who have been living in tents with their kids for years, face years-long waits for social housing.
The housing crisis, driven by soaring rents and underinvestment in housing, has become a major national issue, even impacting politicians like Wilson Tucker, who despite his salary, could not find affordable housing.
The crisis highlights the urgent need for housing to be treated as a human right.
