As PhD researcher at the University of Twente I'm researching integrative approaches that strive to make the living environment more climate-resilient under future societal and climatic uncertainties. I focus specifically on flood resilience in urbanized deltas, where together with practitioners I co-create an integrative flood risk management approach, called 'Flood Resilient Landscapes'. This approach strives to create public value by embedding flood safety explicitly in spatial developments (NL: water- en bodem sturend).
My research is driven by a multitude of questions, such as: How do we provide a flood-resilient living environment under climatic and societal challenges? What are the challenges in the implementation of 'integrative policies' that aim to bring a wide range of sectors together such as housing, energy and flood safety? And how do we bring these sectors together? My passion for addressing these "wicked problems" is the driving force behind my research. Through my work, I aim to contribute to the creation of a more flood, and climate, resilient environment.
