Waithood: The experience of being on the social housing waiting list

该项目旨在调查社会住房等候名单上的人的情况，以及他们在等待社会住房物业可供使用时如何管理自己的日常生活。它还旨在审查如何进行社会住房轮候名单评估，并概述轮候名单人口。在深入访谈的基础上，这项研究预计将产生关于不同申请者群体的新知识。预期结果包括更好地了解长时间在等候名单上的影响。这项研究将带来重大好处，因为所产生的高质量证据应该会加强政策制定者对申请者情况的了解，并导致更好的结果。

This project aims to investigate the circumstances of people on the social housing waiting-list and how they manage their everyday lives while waiting for a social housing property to become available. It also aims to conduct a review of how social housing waiting list assessments are done and profile the waiting list population. Drawing on in-depth interviews, the study expects to generate new knowledge on different groups of applicants. Expected outcomes include an enhanced understanding of the impacts of being on the waiting list for extended periods. This study will provide significant benefits as the high quality evidence produced should enhance policymakers’ understandings of applicants' circumstances and lead to better outcomes.
