This fellowship will allow the findings of my PhD research into the factors that support community-led housing growth to be disseminated to a range of audiences in policy, practice and academia. It will also contribute to my development as an academic researcher and lead to further research activity concerning sustainability in the built environment. Community-led housing offers a radical rethink of how housing development is undertaken. The sector offers new ideas for housing development which could offer solutions to some major contemporary housing challenges including; affordability, social cohesion and environmental sustainability, while facilitating greater community control over planning and development processes. In the context of housing crises affecting communities across the world to which bold solutions are necessary, community-led housing approaches aim to restructure the processes of housing development in order to serve the interests of the local population. My research seeks to understand how community-led housing approaches can be best supported, including through organisations which provide advice and support at the local level, known as enabling hubs. During this fellowship I will engage with stakeholders both in the UK and internationally through workshops and written outputs which summarise the findings of my existing research. I will also produce two academic journal articles based on my existing research. Furthermore, I will undertake activity which will act as bridge from this existing research towards further research activity with the community-led housing sector focused on the role of the community-led projects in net-zero, responding to the nature crisis and climate adaptation. This additional research project will support the development of a project proposal for a larger project considering the role of community in adapting the built environment to meet contemporary environmental challenges. The fellowship will also support my development as an academic engaged in policy relevant housing and planning research. I will utilise the opportunity to develop research networks both within the UK and across Europe through disseminating my research work at conferences and through an Overseas Institutional Visit to the UNESCO Housing Chair at of Rovira i Virgili University (Tarragona, Spain). I will also undertake further training which will enable me to better communicate with policy audiences.

该奖学金将使我的博士研究成果能够传播给政策、实践和学术界的一系列受众，这些研究成果涉及支持社区主导的住房增长的因素。它还将有助于我作为一名学术研究员的发展，并促进有关建筑环境可持续性的进一步研究活动。社区主导的住房对住房开发的进行方式进行了彻底的反思。该行业为住房开发提供了新思路，可以为当代一些主要的住房挑战提供解决方案，包括：负担能力、社会凝聚力和环境可持续性，同时促进社区对规划和开发过程的更大控制。在影响世界各地社区的住房危机需要大胆解决方案的背景下，社区主导的住房方法旨在重组住房开发流程，以服务于当地居民的利益。我的研究旨在了解如何最好地支持社区主导的住房方法，包括通过在地方一级提供建议和支持的组织（称为支持中心）。在该奖学金期间，我将通过研讨会和总结我现有研究结果的书面成果与英国和国际上的利益相关者进行接触。我还将根据我现有的研究发表两篇学术期刊文章。此外，我将开展活动，作为现有研究与社区主导的住房部门进一步研究活动的桥梁，重点关注社区主导的项目在净零、应对自然危机和气候适应方面的作用。这个额外的研究项目将支持为一个更大的项目制定项目提案，考虑社区在适应建筑环境以应对当代环境挑战方面的作用。该奖学金还将支持我作为一名从事政策相关住房和规划研究的学者的发展。我将利用这个机会，通过在会议上传播我的研究工作以及对罗维拉维吉利大学（西班牙塔拉戈纳）联合国教科文组织住房主席进行海外机构访问，在英国和整个欧洲发展研究网络。我还将接受进一步的培训，这将使我能够更好地与政策受众沟通。
