The Housing Commission is calling on young people aged 18-39 to participate in a survey designed to gain insight into the experience of purchasing and renting accommodation in Ireland.

Established last year in line with the Government programme, Housing For All, The Housing Commission is responsible for conducting independent evaluations of the housing system in Ireland, like issues of tenure, standards, sustainability, and quality of life issues related to the provision of housing.

The survey, designed and carried out by The Housing Commission, contains a series of multiple-choice questions that record both demographic and income information. All submissions are anonymous and confidential, with no response linked back to a particular individual or organisation.

As an active union in the fight for more and better housing opportunity, Fórsa is encouraging members aged between 18 -39 to complete the survey no later than the 9^th of June 2023.

The survey can be accessed here.

Any additional questions can be relayed to Juliette Cooper at jcooper@forsa.ie.

Fórsa’s Global Solidarity Autumn School will take place on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th November in Nerney’s Court, Dublin.

The school will provide a unique opportunity for interested members to discuss a range of international, trade union and human rights issues.

Delegates will hear about projects that Fórsa actively fund across the world, and it will also be an opportunity to hear about the union’s global solidarity work.

More information on the event will be circulated to branches in the coming weeks. In the meantime, members can contact internationalsolidarity@forsa.ie if they have queries.
