Welcome to Renting Evidence – the Research Network for Renting
Renting Evidence is a community of researchers, stakeholders and policy-makers committed to improving the rented sectors through research and evidence-informed policy and practice. We were established in 2021 by researchers concerned with the current research and evidence-base on renting in the UK.
As a community, Renting Evidence is a knowledge-exchange hub working to support the development of research on novel issues affecting members, and which seeks collaborative, interdisciplinary and cross-sector approaches to help develop evidence-informed policy and practice.
Our purpose
Renting Evidence has the following core purposes:
- to share research and knowledge across professional, policy and academic groups
- to promote best-practice in research on renting
- to promote opportunities which enable connections to be developed between different groups
- to nurture opportunities for new research and evidence-informed policymaking and practice.
About Renting Evidence
We bring together academics, stakeholders & policymakers to share the latest research to support evidence-informed policy & practice.
