A meta-ethnographic systematic review of women’s experiences of homelessness in high income environments

The evidence in this review highlights the perpetual reporting of a deficit lens on homelessness. Women experiencing homelessness in HICs are a heterogeneous group that is poorly recognised and understood in the literature. It appears that there is a lack of tailored and responsive service availability and that this further perpetuates the structural underpinnings of homelessness, which cluster in highly gendered ways.

Abstract

The evidence in this review highlights the perpetual reporting of a deficit lens on homelessness. Women experiencing homelessness in HICs are a heterogeneous group that is poorly recognised and understood in the literature. It appears that there is a lack of tailored and responsive service availability and that this further perpetuates the structural underpinnings of homelessness, which cluster in highly gendered ways.
