THEMATIC EXPERTISE ────

I.

Regenerative Urbanism

Cities are living systems, deeply interconnected with nature, culture and community. I explore how they can shift from extractive patterns toward regenerative ones — restoring ecosystems, strengthening communities and building long-term resilience.

II.

Spatial Justice

Whose voices are recognized and heard in urban decision making processes? Who has access to what, where and why? I examine the structural inequities embedded in how cities are planned and built, and how policy, design and participation can redistribute power and opportunity more fairly.

III.

Systems Thinking

Cities are complex, interconnected systems — yet too often addressed in silos. I use systems thinking to help organisations and communities move beyond fragmented approaches and understand the whole picture, opening space for more transformative and just solutions.

ABOUT ────

I'm an urban geographer based in Malmö, Sweden, with experience across academia, NGOs and the international impact sector, including the UN. I've built expertise in research, facilitation and knowledge sharing, with a focus on urban governance, housing, urban transitions, sustainable ocean city development and sustainability — always with a strong emphasis on equity and spatial justice.

I believe cities can be nurturing places of care and connection. Through ReGenUrban I seek to research, share and collaborate on regenerative urban futures — and work towards making that vision a reality.
