About this project
Who is behind this, and what is it for?
A single-stop home for scholarship on homelessness and the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, deliberately independent of any one university or research centre, so that work from across institutions can sit side by side.
Why this site exists
With the LA28 Games approaching, several research groups began working on the same question at once: what the Olympics will mean for Angelenos who do not have housing. Rather than scatter that work across separate institutional websites, this site brings it together in one place, under a shared structure.
Contributions are welcome from affiliated researchers and from other scholars working in this area.
