Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering, Delft Design Lab Participatory City Making
A background in policy and organization sciences (MA, University of Tilburg) and behavior science (Ph.D., University of Twente) together with an early stage research career anticipating future technologies impacting society within the national Top Technology Institute on Telematics has reinforced her transdisciplinary research approach addressing complex societal challenges at a systemic level. Currently, as a director of the Delft Design Lab Participatory City Making, she promotes designerly ways of working in the public realm using small-scale design experiments in infrastructuring social change. Her on-going research, has been awarded by prestigious grants; Open4Citizens (Horizon2020), Participatory City Making (NWO) and DESIGNSCAPES (Horizon2020), which share their focus on design methodology in relation to digital, social or urban innovation.
