The Griffin Lecture
Events
Join us for The Griffin Lecture presented by the Australian Institute of Architects.
With Felicity Stewart (Director at Stewart Architecture), Nectar Efkarpidis (Director at Molonglo), Jo Clay (MLA ACT Greens), Ngunnawal Elder Uncle Wally Bell, and moderated by Georgia Stynes of ABC Local Radio Canberra.
Wednesday 12 August 2026 from 5PM at the Shine Dome, Canberra.
The topic - housing as Country, community and civic infrastructure.
As housing pressure intensifies across Australia, the discussion will look beyond housing supply alone and consider what kind of homes, communities and places we are creating.
The panel will bring together First Nations knowledge, government, development and architecture to explore housing through the lenses of Country, inclusion, planning reform, design quality and delivery.
The conversation will consider how local knowledge, inclusionary zoning, missing middle housing, development models and architectural expertise can support more affordable, liveable and resilient communities. Together, the speakers will explore how housing can move beyond supply targets to become a stronger expression of belonging, equity and civic value.
