The University of Adelaide is leading two rapid response research projects to help governments at all levels make the best housing policy decisions during and following the Coronavirus pandemic.
The projects are part of the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute’s (AHURI) COVID-19 Research Agenda.
AHURI has announced a total of eight projects being delivered by university research partners designed to enhance decision making that affects many of the most vulnerable Australians, as well as supporting the economic recovery from the crisis.
Professor Anton Middelberg, Deputy Vice-Chancellor – Research at the University of Adelaide said housing had emerged as one of the most challenging policy areas through the COVID-19 pandemic.
“AHURI has recognised the urgent need for quality research to support urban housing policy innovation given the impacts of Coronavirus,” Professor Middelberg said.
