The University of Cincinnati College of Law invites applications for the Eichner Research Fellowship in Workforce Housing Policy, a three-year position starting in January 2023. The fellowship is designed for legal and policy practitioners with a strong interest in housing, real estate, or land use. The fellowship aims to develop actionable recommendations for solving the workforce housing shortage in the Cincinnati region and to create a policy model that can be adapted for use in peer cities around the United States.
The Eichner Fellow will have opportunities to collaborate with faculty and participate in workshops and symposia from across the University, including the College of Law, the School of Planning, the College of Arts & Sciences, and the Lindner College of Business. The fellow’s work will benefit from Cincinnati Law’s existing connections to the city, regional governments, and private developers to ensure their voices as stakeholders are included at appropriate points in the research process. The Fellow will also benefit from UC Law’s significant experience in community-action research, ensuring that the voices of those most affected by workforce housing policy inform the research design and are represented to public partners.
