Call for papers: Housing as a determinant of health and well-being


Alongside Dr. Lara C. Weinstein (Thomas Jefferson University), HSHE’s Director, Dr. Mehdipanah, is guest editing BMC Public Health’s collection Housing as a determinant of health and well-being. 


BMC Public Health is calling for submissions to our Collection on housing as a determinant of health and well-being. The right to adequate housing has been recognized as a basic human right since 1948 when the United States signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Residential instability is a public health crisis that causes and exacerbates health problems, erodes communities, and drives health inequities. BMC Public Health has launched this collection in support of this important social determinant of health.


Manuscripts are due by March 1, 2024.
