Profile Articles Activity

I am a professor (full professor/hoogleraar) in international development at the Institute of Development Policy at the University of Antwerp. I am broadly interested in governance and conflict in spaces where the state is only weakly present, particularly in central and eastern Africa. My current principal research interests are the following: public services in the Democratic Republic of Congo, with a particular focus on the traffic police and taxes; 'green criminology', and particularly ivory trade in central and eastern Africa; conflict and rebel movements in the DRC and Uganda, particularly the LRA and ADF in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and conflict dynamics in western Uganda. I have conducted extensive field research on these issues in the DR Congo and Uganda.
I was a visiting fellow at Makerere University (Uganda; 2004-2006; 2011-2013); and the London School of Economics (Department of International Development; 2014)
