What would it mean to you as a local community, if you had ownership and control of your own permanently affordable housing portfolio, that was also designed to the specific needs of your community… For the people, by the people?
How would you feel as a community knowing that you not only had a voice at the table in the shaping of your local built environment, but you were the people behind the wheel, sitting in the drivers seat?
How transformational would it be for your community to be able to generate generational equity and wealth, for the future of your people?
"A community land trust is a non-profit organisation that holds title to property to deliver permanently affordable housing and community benefit. To ensure they meet the needs of the community they serve, CLTs are characterised by active voting memberships that include, but are not limited to, residents of the CLT’s homes.
In addition to permanently affordable homes that can be rental through to ownership, many CLTs also steward a range of community, open space, and/or commercial properties in response to local need."- The Australian Community land Trust Network
I say… Let's put away all this silliness of power, privilege, and prestige, and get everyone, young and old, around the table to talk about our future together
While we are at it, let's get someone, or everyone, to stand in as a voice for the local natural world as well
Let's envision a future that we can all share, while sharing in its design, its development, its capacity to be a force for change towards more respect and reciprocity, for caring and community, for shared and self love
Today, we launched our National Association for Community Land Trusts website as a free resource to the Nation… Tomorrow, we get to work restructuring its built environment towards a model of civilisation fit for you, your family, and your community, fit for us as custodians of this living world
