Conference: Gentrification and Displacement: What Can We Do About It?

中产阶级化和流离失所：我们能做些什么？是20多年来第一次关于中产阶级化研究的国际会议。会议计划促进了对如何预测中产阶级化以及如何衡量和减轻流离失所的理解。它为学者提供了一个难得的机会，与在日常工作中面临中产阶级化的活动家和从业者接触。特邀演讲者，小组成员和会议组织者代表了职业阶段，学科，方法和理论方向以及人口群体的多样性。本次会议为未来十年的中产阶级化研究指明了前进的道路，并为地球仪面临住房危机的决策者提供了建议。中产阶级化和流离失所：我们能做些什么？是一个充满活力的两天半的活动，其中包括三个主旨发言人，两个全体小组讨论，18个专题会议，指导机会，海报展示，书籍展示，纪录片放映，以及一个上午的实地考察/实地考察社区组织重点是中产阶级化。该计划询问有关如何识别，测量和预测中产阶级化的问题，以及如何最好地评估和减轻中产阶级化引起的流离失所的后果。知识产出包括一份白色文件;一期特刊;一份由大学出版社出版的编辑卷;以及一份关于避免和减轻中产阶级化的社区做法报告。该会议塑造并推进了与会学者的研究，并以包容、公平的方向开展研究，其中包括跨学科、职业阶段、方法论和理论传统以及来自地球仪的观点。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响力审查标准进行评估来支持。

Gentrification and Displacement: What Can We Do About It? is the first international conference on gentrification studies in over 20 years. The conference program advances understandings of how to predict gentrification and how to measure and mitigate displacement. It provides a rare opportunity for scholars to engage with activists and practitioners who face gentrification on the ground in their day-to-day work. Invited speakers, panelists, and session organizers represent a diversity of career stages, disciplines, methodological and theoretical orientations, and demographic groups. The conference charts a path forward for the next decade of gentrification scholarship and provides recommendations to decision-makers facing housing crises around the globe.Gentrification and Displacement: What Can We Do About It? is a dynamic two-and-a-half-day event, that includes three keynote speakers, two plenary panel discussions, 18 topical sessions, mentorship opportunities, poster displays, a book display, a documentary film screening, and a morning of site visits/field trips to community-based organizations focused on gentrification. The program interrogates questions about how to identify, measure, and predict gentrification, and about how best to assess and mitigate the consequences of gentrification-induced displacement. Intellectual outputs include a white paper; a special journal issue; an edited volume published with a university press; and a community practices report on avoiding and mitigating gentrification. The conference shapes and advances the research of the individual scholars who attend, and takes the field in an inclusive, equitable direction that includes perspectives from across disciplines, career stages, methodological and theoretical traditions, and from around the globe.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
