Mattijs van Maasakkers

Mattijs van Maasakkers studies urban planning processes, focusing on how communities and governments organize participation, representation, and decision-making in areas like vacant land management and environmental policy. His work also examines the creation of markets for ecosystem services (systems that assign economic value to environmental benefits like clean water or wildlife habitat) and how community design organizations advocate for equitable planning. This research is relevant to students interested in city planning, public participation in governance, and environmental policy design.

Publication output has been sporadic over the last decade, with occasional bursts of activity (notably 2018 and 2020) followed by gaps, and a low average of 0.4 publications per year over the last five years.
