Abstract

Holistic housing renovations combine physical housing improvements with social and socioeconomic interventions (e.g. referral to social services, debt counselling, involvement in decision-making, promoting social cohesion). This realist review aimed at understanding underlying mechanisms linking holistic housing renovations to health and well-being of adults in disadvantaged neighbourhoods. Following systematic and iterative searching, and relevance and quality appraisals, 18 scientific articles and reports were analysed. We identified three pathways via which physical housing improvements affect health, four pathways via which social and socioeconomic interventions affect health, and two pathways via which both reinforce each other in their health effects. Our findings are theoretically novel, relevant for those conducting holistic housing renovations, and point towards gaps in the literature.
