Summary: The objective of this research project was to assess the current state of knowledge regarding linkages between housing and broader societal outcomes, specifically non-housing outcomes related to education, skills development and employment. A literature review was conducted to assess the current state of knowledge, identify data gaps, examine related methodological challenges and identify future research challenges. The research aimed to address the following questions: What is the current conceptual thinking on how housing affects societal outcomes related to education, skills development and employment? How can these be measured and what challenges exist? What perspectives exist regarding vulnerable groups with distinct housing needs? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the various methodological approaches used to identify, quantify and attribute societal outcomes?
