The aim of this project is to produce legal and participatory research to examine what the Public Sector Duty means for housing authority staff and whether they meet their obligations in delivering homelessness and housing services. The research focuses on people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, particularly those facing intersectional inequalities such as migrants, members of the Traveller community and racialised groups. Drawing on legal casework and lived experience, it aims to expose systemic gaps, highlight good practice, and identify rights-based standards. The findings will be targeted at local authorities and relevant public bodies to support compliance with their Duty obligations.
