Fiona interviews Robert Pradolin, CEO of Housing all Australians, about the role of the private sector in addressing the housing crisis. He talks about his awakening to the issues of homelessness, how "purpose" is just as important as "profit" in the private sector, and what his organisation is doing to make use of all the empty buildings in our cities to provide shelter for the homeless.Interviewing organisations like these is not what we ordinarily do on 3CR – we usually try to hear from people who do not usually get their voices heard on the radio – and would love to hear your thoughts. Is there a role for private developers in providing affordable housing, or is this a fundamental contradiction? Is it true that government is too slow to act, and we must turn to the private sector? Can we use the masters tools to dismantle the masters house? Get in contact and tell us what you think haag@oldertenants.org.au or call (03) 9654 7389 to have your say
