- ItemHe Kāinga Oranga: reflections on 25 years of measuring the improved health, wellbeing and sustainability of healthier housing(Taylor and Francis, on behalf of Te Aparangi, The Royal Society of New Zealand, 2023-02-06) Howden-Chapman P; Crane J; Keall M; Pierse N; Baker MG; Cunningham C; Amore K; Aspinall C; Bennett J; Bierre S; Boulic M; Chapman R; Chisholm E; Davies C; Fougere G; Fraser B; Fyfe C; Grant L; Grimes A; Halley C; Logan-Riley A; Nathan K; Olin C; Ombler J; O’Sullivan K; Pehi T; Penny G; Phipps R; Plagman M; Randal E; Riggs L; Robson B; Ruru J; Shaw C; Schrader B; Teariki MA; Telfar Barnard L; Tiatia R; Toy-Cronin B; Tupara H; Viggers H; Wall T; Wilkie M; Woodward A; Zhang WThis paper reflects on the influences and outcomes of He Kāinga Oranga/Housing and Health Research Programme over 25 years, and their impact on housing and health policy in Aotearoa and internationally. Working in partnership particularly with Māori and Pasifika communities, we have conducted randomised control trials which have shown the health and broad co-benefits of retrofitted insulation, heating and remediation of home hazards, which have underpinned government policy in the Warm Up NZ-Heat Smart programme and the Healthy Homes Standards for rental housing. These trials have been included as evidence in the WHO Housing and Health Guidelines and led to our designation as a WHO Collaborating Centre on Housing and Wellbeing. We are increasingly explicitly weaving Māori frameworks, values and processes with traditional Western science.
- ItemPlacemaking and public housing: the state of knowledge and research priorities(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023-05-08) Chisholm E; Olin C; Randal E; Witten K; Howden-Chapman PThis article examines the international literature on placemaking–practices or initiatives that encourage a sense of place–in public housing communities. Placemaking is likely to be particularly beneficial to public housing tenants, and is a current priority for public housing providers; yet reviews of placemaking research have failed to consider public housing. Our systematic quantitative review of 63 English-language journal articles reveals that the field is dominated by qualitative cross-sectional studies conducted in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, in the context of regeneration, and published in social science journals. Our thematic analysis of this literature shows that placemaking is supported by forming relationships and participating in community activities, by access to quality public space and amenities, and by spending time and forming memories in a place. The review therefore provides guidance to public housing providers and reveals the need for particular research, including longitudinal studies, and studies conducted in both redeveloped and existing communities.
