Housing needs and living experiences of single mothers The study of single mothers in Taipei low-cost housing projects This thesis analyzes the obstacle of single mothers in their living experiences in order to explore their housing needs. The field study is in Ankong, Fumin, and Yanji low-cost housing projects in Taipei City. The definition of single mother is the mother who divorce, bereft of one's spouse or unmarried, and living with one or more children of no more then eighteen years old. The study uses in-depth interviews and participation observations to examine why single mothers move into low-cost housing and their housing problems in the process of relocation. Based on housing needs of these single mothers, this research seeks to propose a housing improvement plan to solve their housing problems. The thesis has three purposes: 1.To make housing needs of single mothers visible. 2.To explore the obstacles of single mothers in their living experience from the study on the low-cost housing projects. 3.To propose a housing improvement plan to reduce the double burden of single mothers. The content of each chapter is: Chapter two: Living stories of single mothers. Chapter three: Housing problems of single mothers in the low-cost housing projects. Chapter 4: Conclusion and suggestion. Keyword: single motherliving experienceshousing needslow-cost housing project
