AAG submission: Northern Territory Planning Commission’s ‘Big Thinking about Smaller Homes' consultation

AAG welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to the Northern Territory Planning Commission’s ‘Big Thinking about Smaller Homes’ consultation.

We have drawn on our existing research and policy outputs to inform this submission, which speaks to the opportunities urban planning can provide to promote the health and wellbeing of older people living in the Northern Territory.

Our main points speak to:
- Extreme weather and natural disasters
- Social cohesion and inclusion
- Healthy ageing in place.
