\nRésumé :
\nToronto’s Regent Park is one of
  Canada’s oldest and largest public housing developments. Since 2005\, i
 t has been undergoing a complete demolition and redevelopment into a much 
 denser\, mixed income community. Many have claimed that the revitalization
  will improve the well-being of subsidized housing residents\, and we have
  been studying the impact on these residents for the past several years. T
 his seminar will describe the main components of the study\, highlighting 
 key principles of population health intervention research and realist eval
 uation through the example of investigating the health and social impacts 
 of the Regent Park redevelopment. Overall\, results show almost no evidenc
 e of harm\, and small improvements in some health indicators\, but much mo
 re substantial improvements in housing satisfaction\, neighbourhood satisf
 action and perceptions of safety from crime.
