Juwe

Juwe van Vliet is a PhD candidate at the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at TU Delft. With a background in social-technical design and experience in interdisciplinary collaboration, she works on the intersection of design, policy, and systems thinking. In her PhD, she focuses on developing ways to understand and design for impact in regional collaborations, exploring how learning and monitoring can become more anticipatory and future-oriented.

Her work involves close collaboration with partners from the Waterwegregio Regiodeal, as well as researchers and practitioners working on economic, social and ecological innovation. So far, she has been involved in setting up participatory dialogues and exploratory event content to connect local project goals to long-term regional ambitions.

She enjoys working at the boundary between practice and reflection, translating complex interactions into design opportunities, and hopes her work contributes to caring, futuristic and integrated approaches to regional collaboration and impact.

More about Juwe

Juwe van Vliet is a designer with a socio-technical background and a strong interest in interactions — between people, products, and broader ecosystems. She is part of this group because she is curious about how collaborative regional initiatives can be understood and supported through design. Her PhD explores how we might reframe or redesign impact monitoring for short-term projects with long-term goals, such as the Waterwegregio Regiodeal, and how social and ecological aspects can be given a meaningful place within these processes.
