This research is concerned with how gender, housing and participation intersect to create more meaningful opportunities for understanding the housing needs of women and, ultimately, to establish more responsive housing options. Specifically, the research explores the role of participatory planning and design in improving the housing conditions and quality of life for women with low-incomes. Through this research, participation is examined for its potential to derive both physical and social outcomes in the context of affordable housing development. A qualitative research strategy was employed, including literature review and interviews based upon a case study. The case study examines a participatory design process undertaken by Entre Nous Femmes (ENF) Housing Society toward the design of affordable housing for women. Through a successful participatory design process, ENF created a venue for women to describe, create and control their own housing circumstances. What emerged from the participatory design process was the development of a responsive and women-oriented housing model. Through this process, women were also given meaningful opportunities to build their own capacity and skills, which they were able to apply to other areas of their life. This practicum provides a discussion of lessons learned and considerations for supporting the participation of women in the design and development of affordable housing. This includes proposing policy recommendations. Suggestions for future research are outlined in the final chapter.
