>

Speakers are invited on behalf of the International Journal of Housing Policy to represent major housing systems with distinctive models of social and affordable housing (for details on country speakers invited by the Journal, please see the attached file).
>
>Part Two: Presentation sessions on Chinese housing by researchers from both inside and outside of China, including PhD students. If you are doing research on Chinese housing, you are welcomed to submit a paper for presentation at the symposium.
