About Madelinde

Madelinde Winnubst is an Assistant Professor in Public Governance and Management at the Utrecht University School of Governance, Faculty of Law, Economics and Governance. She holds a PhD with the thesis 'Turbulent Waters: Cross-Scale Conflict and Collaboration in River Landscape Planning' (2011) and an MSc in Cultural Anthropology from Utrecht University (completed 1990). A doctor in Sociology, she joined Utrecht University in 2010, focusing her research on government-citizen relationships, public participation, citizen initiatives, conflict and collaboration in water management, impacts of spatial plans on citizens' daily lives and livelihoods, and social cohesion in suburbs and villages. Since 2005, she has led a longitudinal study on flood safety plans in the river landscape. Her work examines stakeholder initiatives in flood risk management, particularly within the Dutch 'Room for the River' program, narratives of participation and consensus-building, and knowledge production in spatial-environmental conflicts.
