VICTORIAN STATE ELECTION CAMPAIGN 2026
VICTORIAN STATE ELECTION 2026 POLICY PLATFORM
Victoria’s cities, towns and landscapes shape how we live, work and connect. As the population grows and the impacts of climate change accelerate, the quality of the built environment has never mattered more.
Building a Better Victoria sets out the Australian Institute of Architects’ 2026 Victorian State Election Policy Platform, grounded in three mutually reinforcing pillars:
- Advancing the profession of architecture
- Legislating the value of good design
- Embedding sustainability and climate resilience
