This podcast is about cooperative housing living and is presented by Co-operative Housing International, the global apex organization that unites cooperative housing. We have engaging conversations with people who live and/or work in cooperative housing, covering topics ranging from a group of friends living in a coop in harmony with its surrounding environment on a remote Japanese island to the implications of developing a coop on leased land in Canada and the UK. Since the cooperative housing model is so flexible, it can be adapted to accommodate many different needs and circumstances. Through these conversations, we aim to explore the unique benefits and challenges of this community-led form of housing. Sit back and enjoy!

This week we feature Rosie Moore from Peterborough Housing Co-op in Christchurch, New Zealand. The Peterborough Housing Co-operative was founded in 1982 but had to be rebuilt after experiencing extensive damage in the 2011 earthquake. The coop rebuilt a unique pocket neighbourhood in the heart of Christchurch, with community at its centre.
In this episode, Julie LaPalme, CHI's Secretary-General talks with Rosie about growing up in a housing coop and now raising her son in one.
