The story

Research reaching practice

AHURI’s policy-oriented housing report uses Professor Amir’s rating-system comparison.

How the research was used

The report cites the comparison when explaining how the range of rating tools can confuse built-environment professionals about scope and standards. That evidence helps frame its investigation of sustainable housing at neighbourhood scale.

The documented contribution

April 2023 · Printed page 9 · Reference page 73. Evidence within an independent policy inquiry; this does not establish adoption of a recommendation or a change to Australian housing standards.
