Prof. Neelke Doorn (TU Delft) receives Vidi Grant

Professor Neelke Doorn (TU Delft) received a Vidi Grant worth € 800,000 for her research ‘Responsibility for resilience in climate adaptation’. This research is about the responsibility of citizens in climate adaptation policy. Citizens are increasingly expected to take responsibility for resilience to climate change. Neelke will use the grant to spend the next five years to develop an ethical theory and study the extent to which civic responsibility can be shared fairly and effectively in climate adaptation policy. She hopes that this project will pave the way for climate policy that is not only effective, but also fair in the sense that everyone will benefit, not just highly educated people.
