Background Information...

The research was undertaken in two stages.

Stage 1

Stage 1 was six projects operating in parallel, that:

  • profiled the populations in receipt of HA and compare an array of socio-demographic characteristics with appropriate benchmarks of economic participation;
  • identified the data sources that were most appropriate for investigation;
  • provided an inventory of the policy initiatives emerging in this area;
  • and conducted qualitative work to investigate how housing assistance recipients subjectively understand the relationship between aspects of HA and their economic participation decisions.

Stage 2

The results from Stage 1 were used in Stage 2 to frame the detailed development of research projects, alongside a process of consultation with key stakeholders about the Stage 1 findings. Stage 2 involved qualitative and quantitative projects.
