The Australian and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) is a national not-for-profit independent network organisation that funds, conducts, disseminates and tailors high quality research on homelessness cities and Indigenous. AHURI’s mission is to deliver high quality, policy-relevant evidence for better and urban outcomes, and their strategic goals are to strengthen policy relevance; ensure high quality research; improve research accessibility; foster dynamic collaboration and support and strengthen research capability. AHURI funding is received from three sources: grants from the Australian and all state and territory governments; contributions from their university partners and third parties.
