New research and school curriculum unveiled by Orange Sky on Homelessness

Saturday, August 16, 2025

Last week was National Homelessness Week, raising awareness about the issue and building community support and government commitment to end homelessness.

With a housing and a cost of living crises, some Australians have no choice to sleep rough. However, a new research conducted by not-for-profit OrangeSky shows Australians lack an understanding of what being homeless is, with 1 in 10 saying they can clearly define homelessness. 

It also shows two-thirds of Australians believe homelessness is 'sleeping rough' or in an improvised shelter for at least ten days. OrangeSky has also launched a school curriculum course to teach school kids about homes and what homelessness is, so they have a clear understanding of it and become more sympathetic towards this sector. 

4ZZZ's contributor Eduardo Jordan spoke with Shayne Herriot, Chief Operating Officer at Orange Sky about the research and school curriculum Orange Sky launched last week.
