“…Inclusion emerged as a prominent solution and encompassed both neighbourhood and community inclusion, as well as inclusive housing for people with disabilities. Affordable, safe, stable, and accessible housing is a wellknown contributor to social inclusion (Hulse, 2011), and affordable housing that is designed to meet accessibility needs is desperately needed to house individuals with disabilities stably (Lindsay et al, 2023). However, positive neighbourly interactions and strong social relations in communities are rarely discussed as contributors to affordable housing.…”

Canada is in the midst of a national housing crisis that renders households vulnerable to unstable and unaffordable housing, and various forms of homelessness. New Brunswick is a largely rural Canadian province with three mid-sized cities that have lower housing values than larger Canadian centres. However, affordability is eroding in the province’s housing market, and the rental market offers few options for low-to-moderate-income renters. Simultaneously, visible homelessness and encampments are on the rise. Saint John, one of the mid-sized cities, is a relatively new destination for housing market investment and interprovincial migration, which is leading to higher rents and housing purchase prices. Through an analysis of World Café data collected with 85 individuals (representatives from government, people with lived experience of housing instability, non-profit agencies, housing developers, etc.) in Saint John, New Brunswick, this paper presents locally driven, on-the-ground solutions to the housing and homelessness crises in a mid-sized city.

“…Aldrich and Meyer (2015) affirmed that communities that collaborate regularly tend to be more resilient in the face of adversity. people's connections and bonds with one another, including family, friends, and the broader community, where shared values are present, significantly contribute to social cohesion (Hulse and Stone 2006;Franz et al, 2022). Similarly, Fonseca (2019); and Titz et al (2018) argue that a cohesive society fosters the exchange of common ideas among residents, allowing them to identify and work towards shared goals through a shared set of moral values.…”

The concepts of risk and resilience have gained growing relevance in the context of cultural values and community cohesiveness. Specifically, in the face of threat particularly in situations like armed conflicts. Simultaneously, there is an argument that emphasizes, cultural values and community cohesiveness are valuable assets for fostering resilience, lessening disaster risk, and promoting peace and reconciliation among individuals in many communities around the globe. The current study seeks to understand whether cultural values and community cohesiveness influence resilience among affected public housing residents in Maiduguri Borno State Nigeria. Hofstede cultural value model, was used as the model for this study. The study employed a cross-sectional design, used questionnaire for data collection, and a sample size of 345 across 5 public housing, based on the proportion of their population, using Cochran (1977), formula in determining the sample size. Data was analysed using SPSS package version 25. The descriptive analysis, reveals a high level of cultural values and community cohesiveness while results from the regression analysis indicate that cultural values and community cohesiveness predict resilience. The study therefore suggests that culture should be cooperated in neighbourhood and housing design. Likewise, coping strategies such as resilience-oriented planning to deal with the security situation at all levels should pay special attention and support community social networks in order to enhance their resiliency.
