On Monday, 10th January 2022, Social Justice Ireland published our policy briefing 'Housing and Poverty 2022'. This briefing, which can be accessed on our website HERE analyses the impact of housing costs – mortgage interest and rent – on the poverty rates of various household types.
In this latest episode of our SJI 10 Minute Lessons Series, we take a look at poverty, how it's calculated and what it looks like and the impact of rent payments on the poverty rate of people receiving housing subsidies.
