Briefing on “Climate and Housing Crisis: A Research Agenda for Urban Communities”
The Sustainable Solutions Lab and the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy held a briefing on a joint working paper, “Climate and Housing Crisis: A Research Agenda for Urban Communities.” This paper explored several key questions, including:
– What community characteristics support successful implementation of residential development projects that are affordable and sustainable?
– How can a social cost-benefit analysis quantify social and environmental impacts so that projects that are not financially feasible using conventional metrics can be attractive?
– How can analytic methods be used to yield insights into designing policy instruments?
