Research expertise
Scientific researcher in the team ‘Nature & Society’ at the Research Institute for Nature and Forest. The team is committed to participatory processes and co-creation: by using a user-centered approach, including agile workflows in research projects, we ensure that governments and other actors can better realize their challenges.
Thematically, Julie focuses on urban nature, nature-based solutions and land use frictions, drawing on her experience with Geographical Information Systems, hydro-ecological studies and environmental impact assessments in different contexts (Europe, Africa, South America and the Pacific). With a spatial analytical lens and strong attention to end-user needs, Julie participates in various research projects.
