Gendered housing matters: toward gender- responsive data and policy making

9 Feb 2024

• This research seeks to inform improved housing and homelessness responses to gendered housing experiences, and to explicitly broaden the ways we conceptualise and engage with gender in housing policy, research, and data collection and analysis. [...] Development and application of a Gendered Housing Framework The aims of this project have been to illuminate and progress gendered understandings of housing and homelessness, including assessing the adequacy of current housing and homelessness data for informing gender-responsive policy making, and how improved gender responsiveness can be progressed. [...] This report presents findings of an investigation that sits at the intersection of gendered experience, the adequacy of data infrastructure for understanding and monitoring gendered housing and homelessness, and gendered housing and homelessness policy spheres. [...] Most of the literature concerning trans and gender diverse people and sexual minorities is concerned with the relationship between discrimination and victimisation and homelessness and housing precarity. [...] The diversity of topics in the Australian literature and the paucity of work concerning housing suggests there is enormous scope for future gender and housing and homelessness research.
