Overview
Peter Mackie is a Professor at Cardiff University in the School of Geography and Planning, where his research and teaching focus on two broad themes. Firstly, he is recognised as a leading international expert in the field of housing and homelessness. His research in this area has focussed on the prevention of homelessness, including the role of rights-based approaches as potential solutions to housing poverty. His body of work has had considerable impact, including the development of new legislation in multiple countries. Secondly, he has a long-standing interest in urban livelihoods and the informal economy. Within this broad theme he has explored issues of child labour, rights to public space, and livelihoods during conflict and crises. In all of Peter’s research he has sought to understand the experiences of people in poverty from their own perspectives and he is increasingly engaged in the development and application of advanced quantitative methods relating to administrative data-linkage and evaluative trials methodologies in the homelessness field.
Peter’s research portfolio totals more than £30 million, with funders including; ESRC, DFID, British Academy, International Institute for Economic Development, national and local governments, and numerous charities. Peter has worked in and published on many countries: Africa (Ethiopia, Nigeria, Somaliland, Tanzania), Asia (India, Nepal, Pakistan), Middle East (Egypt), Latin America (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru), UK, USA, Canada and Australia. Peter is a member of the Housing Studies Association and Royal Geographical Society (with Institute of British Geographers) and he is currently a FEANTSA Research advisor for the UK, international advisory board member of ‘Making the shift’ – a Canadian Network of Centres of Excellence focused on youth homelessness, an advisor to the Centre for Homelessness Impact, and Director of the Welsh Hub of the UK Collaborative Centre for Housing Evidence. He is frequently an advisor to national governments in the UK and has worked closely with UN-Habitat on several projects.
