Tenant participation to enable the experience of home in social housing
Tenant participation in social housing is recognised as integral to good governance and has been incorporated in formal policy across many Western countries. While tenant participation has much intuitive appeal and is often viewed as a good thing of itself, there is limited empirical knowledge of the value it holds or why it should be progressed. This study contributes to contemporary research on tenant participation in social housing—including h…
“There’s not much I can do about it”
People's experiences of homelessness are also experiences of violence and distress.Individuals experiencing homelessness are often forced into unregulated places like shelters or rough sleeping, where violence thrives.Due to shelter shortages, Australia is using backpacker hostels and boarding houses to accommodate people experiencing homelessness, but how violence manifests in these settings is not well understood.We draw on ethnographic researc…
Seeing, Sharing and Supporting
Assertive outreach is becoming an increasingly salient feature of policy responses to homelessness—and particularly rough sleeping—with the aim of supporting people to access secure housing. Despite its demonstrated successes, existing research points to structural challenges practitioners face in navigating complex and fragmented service systems to provide people sleeping rough with a continuum of care. This study examines an Australian organisa…

Cancer on the margins
Cancer is a multifaceted entity with recent developments in treatment only increasing this diversification. Yet, some cancers are less common, less well understood, and receive less attention. Taking neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) as a case study, we explore the lived experience of people with a type of cancer that is virtually unknown among the general population. Drawing on interviews with 30 people living with NETs in Australia, we explored how…
Cosmopolitan encounters
This study contributes to the growing research on everyday cosmopolitanism in diverse societies. We employ a cosmopolitan encounters framework to explore the reflexive openness people perform and the ethical reasoning they draw on to get along with each other. In particular, we look beyond pleasurable cosmopolitan pursuits to consider encounters that cause frictions or require notable efforts to bridge differences as an occasion for cosmopolitan …
