About the project

The PhD candidate will be a part of an international team of innovation researchers at INN University. The project Rural housing explore different drivers and barriers for regional renewal within the housing sector with empirical main attention on the region of Inland in Eastern Norway. The candidate will carry out studies of the housing market, to investigate possible new innovative housing solutions, and what measures are needed. By comparing several municipalities, the candidate will also explore variation within the housing market and the extent to which municipalities in rural areas have developed strategies and tools to deal with challenges in the housing market.

The Rural housing project will co-operate with leading milieus in the field, and abroad research stays will be facilitated. The project will seek to establish new knowledge about the challenges Norwegian rural municipalities’ face in the housing market, and which housing policy options and solutions that may be applied, and at the same time, link this research to policy advice. Rural housing draw on interdisciplinary literature from social science, economics, geography, regional planning, and public policy.

The candidate must have good methodological knowledge in the method chosen in the project, as well as other relevant theoretical and empirical tools. The following description provide information about the different fields of study:

-  We are seeking a candidate with particular attention towards the role of housing in rural development. Examples of study topics can be: 1) To what extent does locality contribute to challenges on the housing market? 2) To what extent does challenges in meeting the housing need of the population vary between urban and rural areas, and between rural areas, today and over time? What characterize rural regions and dwellings that perform best or worse in meeting the housing need of the population?
3) Which innovative housing solutions, economically and environmentally sustainable, may be relevant to increase settlement in rural areas? (owning, renting, subletting, type of housing, and location). 4) How may stakeholders, private companies and public actors cooperate to create affordable housing solutions, adapted to local development and jobs? What instruments exist and what barriers do they face?
