Healthy Homes Initiative – Auckland Co-design: testing ideas to make homes warmer and drier: Report on stage two

Summary

The second report from The Southern Initiative (TSI) focused on the work undertaken since October 2016.

The co-design team refined and tested nine prototypes that included:

• building capacity and capability of existing curtain networks
• testing whether power vouchers and education would help whānau to heat their home more in winter.
