A growing concern, then, is that scientific knowledge of increasing near-term risks to buildings in Australia that could cause significant damage and impact on the well-being of occupants, is not yet well integrated into building policies and regulations. This paper investigates the climate change science-policy-practice interface (SPPI) of Australia’s building regulations with a view to enhancing housing resilience using a case study method. Attention to SPPIs is found to provide a more nuanced understanding of barriers to the use of climate change science in regulations, and of ways to tailor reforms to address them. Consideration of the science embedded in regulations and practice, distinct from assumptions that science is exogenous to end users, can usefully help focus the initiation of such reforms. This paper outlines steps to address identified weaknesses in all SPPI building regulation components in Australia for resilience in a changing climate. It is suggested that a disaggregated analysis of regulations as an SPPI may be helpful in designing reforms in other countries where building codes are yet to comprehensively address physical climate change risks.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"49 1","pages":"209 - 228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1947738","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47933179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research suggests that local decision-makers in small towns may be reluctant to advocate for an increase in affordable housing due to their proximity to residents, local power dynamics and racial inequality. This study uses survey data from 164 decision-makers in rural, small towns in Georgia to examine perceptions of housing affordability and the need for rental housing for low-income households compared to place-level data on rental housing supply, demand, affordability and other community characteristics. Many communities in the study have housing market and economic conditions that are likely affecting their lower-income residents, however increasing affordable rental housing was not an identified need for the majority of respondents in the study. Our analysis found no clear pattern between the data-based indicators of housing need and decision-makers’ assessments of changes needed in housing for low-income renters. Small town politics may contribute to this lack of awareness or acknowledgment of housing need. Further research about the factors that shape perceptions of and actions on housing issues among leaders in rural small towns.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"49 1","pages":"187 - 208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1940447","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47818888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Permanent supportive housing (PSH) can improve patients’ health, quality of life (QOL) and wellbeing, and reduce healthcare costs over the long-run. Yet, there is limited research to understand the challenges and opportunities that arise, particularly with regards to housing quality, when stakeholders such as health plans decide to operate PSH programs. We describe a PSH program administered by a large Medicaid managed care plan, serving individuals experiencing homelessness with complex medical histories, and outline participants’ perceptions (n = 22) on the relationship between quality of housing and QOL – including physical health, mental health and social wellbeing. Findings indicate perceived improvements in physical, mental, and social aspects of QOL were attributed to housing stability, location, and quality. However, participants also highlighted stressors perceived to diminish QOL, particularly issues with the location and physical characteristics of the housing environment, challenging relationships with landlords and perceived discrimination. These results offer policy implications, including identifying roles for local and regional stakeholders to improve PSH programs by enhancing housing inspections, code enforcement, and prospectively tracking participant QOL.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"50 1","pages":"13 - 34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1928853","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43219485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These reforms led to rapid economic growth and urbanization, positioning modern day Vietnam as one of the fastest growing economies in Southeast Asia. By 2018, the Vietnamese national government had designated 326 industrial zones, attracting a total of US$41.8 billion worth of domestic capital and US$145 billion in foreign capital. This study evaluates the factors associated with health outcomes for industrial zone workers in Hanoi, Vietnam. Analyzing 501 surveys of industrial worker households living in informal sector housing in industrial zones, we examine demographic, socio-environmental, housing, and occupational factors in shaping physical and mental health outcomes. This is one of the first studies of informal housing in industrial zones in Vietnam which provides an exploratory analysis of how living and working environments in industrial zones affects the health of workers. Gender is one indicator that stands out as a robust and significant predictor of health outcomes. We find that women fare worse on all four measures of health outcomes in our study.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"49 1","pages":"301 - 337"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1918970","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47508910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, it argues that the change of food flow due to the need for physical distancing throughout the pandemic resulted in the changing patterns of everyday practice concerning consumption, sourcing, and preparation. Such changes could be observed in the spatial arrangement of the domestic sphere, where the food flow is intertwined with cleaning protocols. This paper studies domestic food flow and its spatial arrangement during the first month of physical distancing in Greater Jakarta, a region with the most confirmed case of COVID-19 in Indonesia. Mappings of the food flow are constructed based on interviews with 15 urban domestic households and complemented by the photographs of domestic food practices. The interrupted and prolonged flow of food generated three patterns of circulation and localization of dirt in certain areas of the house: the clean, the dirty, and the in-between, including the re-appropriation of outdoor space. The understanding of these patterns highlights the importance of spatial practice when dealing with new health threats, thereby expanding the idea of a healthy home.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"50 1","pages":"49 - 69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1928854","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46952770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we draw upon feminist and intersectional literatures on gendered inequalities and social structures, which provide the often forgotten or overlooked context for women’s experiences in housing. This includes the broader insight that too frequently, women have not been involved in shaping the policy and planning climate around housing, even as they disproportionately are affected by them. Second, we describe women’s housing-related precarity and some of its implications, grounding this research in a political economic critique of the way that housing and resources are allocated and the neoliberal climate that values profit over people and that has induced instability for many women in so many communities. We conclude by offering examples of organizations and initiatives that work to address the disparities identified herein. Throughout the paper, we emphasize the need for intersectional and interdisciplinary collaborations (for example, among queer, anti-racist, feminist, political economic, and other scholars) that engage with complexity and orient toward equity and justice.","PeriodicalId":52110,"journal":{"name":"Housing and Society","volume":"24 4","pages":"10 - 37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08882746.2021.1922044","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41295799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
