Summary: | The Housing Forum, which took place on April 26, 2016, emerged as an idea with the acknowledgement that the topic of housing was a gap in research being undertaken by the On the Move Partnership and, more generally, in the literature related to Employment-related Geographical Mobility (E-RGM). Preliminary On the Move findings suggested that housing availability and affordability in Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) was being impacted by ERGM; however, the extent of these impacts was not clear. The Housing Forum was planned with industry and community partners to provide an opportunity for housing industry representatives, policy makers, community representatives, and researchers to meet and discuss the current and potential impacts of E-RGM on housing in NL. |
