Abstract

In November 1994, 75 experts on public and low-income housing from around the USA and the world came to Cincinnati, Ohio to present papers and discuss issues concerning public housing. The Forum included keynote addresses, work sessions with public-housing residents, paper presentations and thematic round-table discussions. Representatives from 29 US housing authorities and from seven other countries were present, as well as public housing practitioners and academicians. The resulting publication, Proceedings: Future Visions of Urban Public Housing, includes 55 papers on such topics as: public-housing policy; comprehensive neighbourhood planning for public housing; public housing in the urban design context; quality of design standards and guidelines for public housing; resident participation and enhanced self-sufficiency in public housing; public-housing alternatives; revitalising and rehabilitating public housing; and elderly, children (and other special populations) in public housing. 1
