The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, has awarded a $100,000 Project Grant to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to develop an interdisciplinary research center on the complex issues of housing and homelessness.
The center will bring together researchers from diverse disciplines such as economics, psychology, anthropology, geography, and sociology to investigate the social, health, economic, and policy dimensions of the housing and homelessness crises. The project aims to inform public debate by providing data-driven research and replace misconceptions with accessible findings. Planned activities include identifying a strategic research agenda, improving data ecosystems, and supporting community participatory research to inform policy solutions addressing these intersecting challenges.
