Grounded is mobilising to safeguard land and housing for future generations via Community Land Trusts
Grounded is a not-for-profit organisation established to advocate, incubate and accelerate the development of Community Land Trusts (CLTs) in Australia.
Grounded has assembled a passionate team of changemakers determined to disrupt our current housing model and finally deliver real, intergenerational affordability.
Together, we can get the economics right so that our land and housing payment streams go towards supporting our community, rather than draining it.
WHAT IS A COMMUNITY LAND TRUST?
Community Land Trusts (CLTs) are a for-purpose development model focused on housing that meets key community needs. A CLT embeds perpetual affordability, sustainability and land stewardship into its core purpose.
CLTs have been successful in the northern hemisphere in identifying raw community needs, whether that be in housing, farming, or saving a beloved local pub.In short, CLTs make housing cheaper and more accessible with the value created by the housing going back to the community.
Together can make affordable housing and responsible land stewardship a reality for all.
