Dr. Ir. Luc Boerboom and others depending on your interest
To be discussed depending on your skills
Programming skills required, e.g. python, JS frameworks. You can be working in a development team. Possibly you can combine with internship.
UN-Habitat and VNG-International have respectively been using the Spatial Development Framework (SDF) methodology for 8 years or are interested in applying it. To that end new web-based spatial planning tools need to be developed for integrated governance. You could either collaborate in development of a web-based collaborative spatial evaluation tool or develop a serious game for integrated spatial governance for urban spatial planning and development.
Develop design framework for web-based collaborative spatial evaluation
Develop serious games for integrated spatial governance and planning
