ENHR 2026 is over!

Four days of interesting plenary sessions, workshops, field trips, informal meetings, dinners and more is now over. Thank you all participants!

June 30 to July 3 2026, the ENHR Conference in Oslo gathered researchers, policymakers, and housing professionals to explore how changing housing systems shape and are shaped by social stratification, urban development, and economic transformation.

The title for this years conference is: Homeownership, Prosperity, and Inequality in the 21st Century. Social, Spatial, and Historical Patterns.

What is the role of homeownership in a period marked by housing affordability crises, rising wealth gaps, and demographic change? Once seen as a pathway to security and social mobility, homeownership now also reinforces inequality and segregation in many cities. How do these dynamics occur, and how are housing systems adapting to demographic and economic change? Will policymakers manage to address these challenges?
