Product Description
This report identifies what medium-density housing (MDH) means in an international context. It complements a previous BRANZ report on defining MDH (SR376), which reviewed New Zealand literature on MDH.
Understanding the international context of MDH research will enable BRANZ researchers to identify and understand how learnings from international experiences about MDH can inform the development of further MDH research in New Zealand.
This international literature review provides insights on the range of international research available and includes a comparison of MDH definitions and identification of emerging themes. It reviews technical research alongside strategy and policy documents regarding MDH to understand current knowledge gaps and implications for successful MDH delivery in New Zealand.
