The Governance of Polycentric Urban Regions: Responding to Climate Change Challenges in the Randstad and the Pearl River Delta
Funding period: 1 January 2013 – 31 October 2016
Type of funding:
Postdoctoral Research Fellowship
Marcin was a USF postdoctoral research fellow in the Chair of Spatial Planning and Research at the Department of Urbanism, Delft University of Technology. His research interests spanned across regional, urban and policy studies, including such topics as multi-level governance; EU, and national, regional and urban development policies; decentralisation, regionalisation and lateralisation; and, transport policy and transnational policy transfer. Geographically, his work has tended to focus on Central and Southern European countries and more recently also on the Netherlands, China and Brazil. His current research investigates the patterns of governance in urban regions through a prism of climate change policy.
He was recently made an Assistant Professor in the same department where he conducted his USF Fellowship.
