چکیده
Over the past ten years, State and Territory housing authorities have stressed the importance of resident participation in community and urban renewal.

Martin Wood of the AHURI UNSW-UWS Research Centre explored these and other questions in a study of six renewal projects in Australia and his findings are reported here.The results underscored the extent of the challenges for those wanting to achieve genuine community participation in renewal programmes.
