Research
In my research, I have mainly studied local development and growth policy, public health policy and emergency preparedness policy. These are all examples of issues that overlap with other policy areas. When this type of policy is to be organised and – so to speak – put into practice, a number of problems often arise.I am keen to understand these issues so that, in the future, we can organise policy more effectively.
From 2024 to 2026, I will primarily be conducting research as part of the project ‘A Holistic Approach and Organisational Fragmentation in the Governance of Local Public Health Work’, funded by Forte.
This blog post provides examples of the research I am conducting into the challenges of integrating public health, rural and climate perspectives into local government policy. Read the blog post here.
