Overview & Agenda
The three-year ABAJ study, which has explored the housing and care needs of the local ‘probin’ community across four East London boroughs, is now coming to a close. During the session, Dr Caroline Holland from The Open University will share key insights, present the findings from this vital research, and discuss the recommended actions for addressing the housing and care needs of the older Bangladeshi community.
We will also be featuring the work of Henri Baptiste at Housing Pathway Solutions on how black and minority housing can flourish, hear from Mushtaq Khan on the work of the Housing Diversity Network and learn from Laura Benbow Coastline Housing in the South West on her recent Housing LIN blog on addressing equality, diversity and inclusion.
