Thanks to the Marie Curie fellowship, I collaborate with the Neighbourhood Change Research Partnership, a major 7-year (2012-2019) research partnership underway in six Canadian metropolitan areas (34 research centers in the country, 12 policy partners) funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). David Hulchanski is the programme’s principal investigator. In the last 20 years, Prof. Hulchanki’s research has deeply focused on what neighbourhood-level interventions are most effective in mitigating the effects of socio-spatial inequalities and producing bottom-up and innovative urban and social regeneration.
