Autoren-Porträt
Elen-Maarja Trell is Assistant Professor of Spatial Planning and Environment at the Faculty of Spatial Sciences, University of Groningen, The Netherlands. In 2014, she was the lead organizer of the international workshop 'Resilience: Just do it?! Governing for Resilience in Vulnerable Places' (with Britta Restemeyer, Melanie M. Bakema and Gwenda van der Vaart). She is interested in the role of local-level initiatives and public participation in creating more resilient and sustainable places. The themes she explores within this context include: community resilience in declining (rural) areas, flood resilience, urban food systems and gardening, and governance of renewable energy initiatives. In her previous projects, she has explored young people's place attachment and influential aspects for the well-being of rural youths in their everyday context. Britta Restemeyer, MSc, is a lecturer and PhD researcher at the Faculty of Spatial Sciences, University of Groningen, The Netherlands. Her research focuses on resilience, adaptive governance and flood risk in urban areas. By studying the cases of Hamburg, London and Rotterdam, she explores how policy-makers deal with the tension between accepting uncertainties and providing security for people and businesses on a strategic as well as local level. Overall, she aims at informing policy strategies for creating more flood resilient cities, by improving the linkage between flood risk management and urban planning. In the past, she has participated in various German, as well as European, research projects (RIMAX, Climate Proof Areas, KLIFF, MARE) on climate change adaptation and flood risk.

disasters. Her interest lies in particular in disaster governance as a multi-level approach to overcome the social vacuum in disaster studies. Cases that she is investigating for her PhD research include Christchurch, New Zealand, Chiloé, Chile and the North of the Netherlands. By exploring the dynamic interactions between nature and societies in these cases, she aims at fostering transitions towards improved governance structures for creating more resilient social-ecological systems in the face of disasters.
Bettina van Hoven is Associate Professor of Cultural Geography at the Faculty of Spatial Sciences, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.
