The Tenant Engagement with Common Ground Queensland (CGQ) project builds on the work of Stretch2Engage and considers the importance of tenant engagement in the housing and homelessness service sector.
We commissioned The University of Queensland, in partnership with CGQ to examine the importance of tenant engagement for tenants living at Brisbane Common Ground, a single site model of permanent supportive housing provided by CGQ.
The project drew on multiple data sources, including a tenant survey and interviews with tenants and service providers. The aim was to build a picture of what tenant engagement does, and could, look like with CGQ, and identify what lessons could be drawn for the wider supportive and social housing systems.
The Commission acknowledges all the tenants who participated in the research, alongside the invaluable contributions of the tenant representatives who were active members of the research team.
