This MSc topic develops a typology of Dutch regions that captures how remote work affects their spatial, economic and social characteristics (Extending Task 2.3 of R-Map1).

Urban slums are among the most vulnerable environments in terms of food access, dietary adequacy, and livelihood stability.

Natural hazards increasingly occur not as isolated events but as multiple, interacting phenomena (e.g., earthquakes followed by landslides, or compound flooding driven by storm surge and extreme ra

This study aims to investigate the environmental impacts of armed conflict in West Darfur, Sudan, with a particular focus on vegetation dynamics.

Generative AI software development tools like Bolt.new enable the fast, efficient, and easy build of all kinds of web services and platforms.

In close collaboration with colleagues from the University of Kwazulu Natal, we can offer a series of MSc research topics related to humanitarian and urban development related to

Natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides pose a persistent threat to the built environment, causing large economic losses and loss of life worldwide.

Crop nutrient concentrations result from the interactions between soil fertility, plant nutrient uptake, and crop growth.

In order to be able to design appropriate risk reduction measures to reduce the increasing impact of multi-hazard events, it is important to have tools to estimate the losses of these compounding e
