This report contains a policy-orientated synthesis of the disparate contributions to remote Indigenous housing from the design, policy and public health literatures as grounded and tested in fieldwork in three sample communities in different parts of Australia. This integration of primary and secondary research is used to develop a flexible set of guidelines to assist policy makers and built-environment professionals to respond to calls for 'suitable low-cost housing options' for Indigenous housing in remote and very remote regions of Australia.
