Why

Airbnb: Laying wreck to our community. In the Blue Mountains, an estimated 90% of rental listings are being advertised as short term accommodation (Blue Mountains City Council 2024), pushing housing out of reach for locals.

Airbnb: Fuelling war crimes. “Shamefully, Airbnb has been promoting and benefiting from a situation that is a root cause of the systematic human rights violations faced by millions of Palestinians on a daily basis... No company should be party to human rights abuse and until Airbnb ends its business relationship with illegal Israeli settlements it will be deeply compromised.” Saleh Higazi, Amnesty International

NSW government: Fanning the flames of the housing crisis - failing to tackle Airbnb or vacant housing, and demolishing public housing.

The system which puts profits over people is tearing apart our communities and our planet. Hear from people fighting back.
