HSA Conference - Early Careers Stream - The Valerie Karn prize

The Housing Studies Association is pleased to announce the introduction of the annual Valerie Karn prize for best paper by an early career housing academic. In 2013, the prize will be awarded to an outstanding paper submitted to the early career stream of the Housing Studies Association's annual conference. All papers submitted to the stream will be considered for the prize, although particular preference will be given to papers sharing Valerie's broad interests, including race and housing, housing standards and conditions, homelessness, housing management and governance and comparative housing research. The prize money will support the professional production and dissemination of the winning paper. It will be hosted on the HSA website as part of a new Valerie Karn paper series and disseminated through the HSA’s networks.
