Georgatos on the campaign for Homeless Friendly Precincts:

“Georgatos describes homeless friendly precincts “as a sliver of human dignity” and the “least we can do, that is if we believe ourselves pursuant of a civil society”. Georgatos writes prolifically for The Stringer, a site edited by media academic and PhD researcher, Jennifer Kaeshagen. But The Stringer is no ordinary online news site. The Stringer is all about campaigning for one cause after another, about working to a better world. Kaeshagen is also the founder of the First Nations Homelessness Project and secures homes, shelter and essential resources for chronically homeless families and individuals.”

• Gerry Georgatos’ first-hand experiences over nearly thirty years with homeless individuals and families have shaped his advocacy and what needs to be done to respond to homelessness.
• ABC coverage – ‘Homeless family living in a tent near Perth” and ‘Homeless family living in a tent near Perth offered housing.’ Read the ABC coverage of these two stories, ‘Homeless family living in a tent near Perth’ and ‘Homeless family living in a tent near Perth offered housing.’
