 hapes social connectedness and for whom\n\nOne of the most important fun
 ctions of housing is to provide shelter. But housing is so much more tha
 n that. Housing can provide a home, it's where people form memories, bui
 ld relationships, study and as many of us have recently experienced, it 
 can also be a place of work. Housing is an important overall indicator o
 f well-being and shapes the ways in which we connect with our families, 
 friends, neighbors, co-workers, and the broader community. In this keyn
 ote presentation, Dr. Markus Moos illustrates the ways in which housing 
 shapes social connections, and how the degree of connectedness varies fo
 r different types of populations. His research provides valuable insight
  into the built form and equity considerations for future housing provis
 ion. \n\nBuilding a Foundation for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion\n\n
