Gentrification and Displacement: What Can We Do About It? is the first international conference on gentrification studies in over 20 years. The conference program advances understandings of how to predict gentrification and how to measure and mitigate displacement. It provides a rare opportunity for scholars to engage with activists and practitioners who face gentrification on the ground in their day-to-day work. Invited speakers, panelists, and session organizers represent a diversity of career stages, disciplines, methodological and theoretical orientations, and demographic groups. The conference charts a path forward for the next decade of gentrification scholarship and provides recommendations to decision-makers facing housing crises around the globe.Gentrification and Displacement: What Can We Do About It? is a dynamic two-and-a-half-day event, that includes three keynote speakers, two plenary panel discussions, 18 topical sessions, mentorship opportunities, poster displays, a book display, a documentary film screening, and a morning of site visits/field trips to community-based organizations focused on gentrification. The program interrogates questions about how to identify, measure, and predict gentrification, and about how best to assess and mitigate the consequences of gentrification-induced displacement. Intellectual outputs include a white paper; a special journal issue; an edited volume published with a university press; and a community practices report on avoiding and mitigating gentrification. The conference shapes and advances the research of the individual scholars who attend, and takes the field in an inclusive, equitable direction that includes perspectives from across disciplines, career stages, methodological and theoretical traditions, and from around the globe.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

中产阶级化和流离失所：我们能做些什么？这是20多年来第一次关于绅士化研究的国际会议。会议计划增进了对如何预测高档化以及如何衡量和减轻流离失所的理解。它为学者们提供了一个难得的机会，与在日常工作中面临中产阶级化的活动家和实践者进行接触。受邀演讲者、小组成员和会议组织者代表了不同的职业阶段、学科、方法和理论方向以及人口群体。会议为下一个十年的绅士化学术指明了前进的道路，并为全球面临住房危机的决策者提供了建议。绅士化和流离失所：我们能做些什么？是一个为期两天半的充满活力的活动，包括三位主讲嘉宾、两次全体小组讨论、18 个专题会议、指导机会、海报展示、图书展示、纪录片放映和上午的现场参观/对以中产阶级化为重点的社区组织进行实地考察。该计划探讨了如何识别、衡量和预测中产阶级化，以及如何最好地评估和减轻中产阶级化引起的流离失所的后果的问题。智力成果包括白皮书；特刊；由大学出版社出版的编辑卷；以及关于避免和减轻中产阶级化的社区实践报告。该会议塑造和推进了参加会议的个别学者的研究，并将该领域引向包容、公平的方向，其中包括来自全球各地的跨学科、职业阶段、方法论和理论传统的观点。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定奖项使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
