  • to understand the housing needs of young people and how policy can best meet them;
  • to assess how community assets can contribute to a thriving civil society;
  • to develop a new 'model' community for the design and management of 21st century homes and neighbourhoods;
  • to find new and more effective ways of engaging residents in developing and managing homes and neighbourhoods;
