Françoise Johansen joined DRIFT in 2015 as a parttime PhD candidate building on her work and experiences as a practitioner in Dutch healthcare. She is supervised by Derk Loorbach and co-supervised by Dr. Annemiek Stoopendaal of the Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management. Her research focuses on the development of sustainability in healthcare in terms of meaning and significance and explores possible changes in culture, structure, and practices, and governance in the movement towards a sustainable health(care) system from a transition perspective.
 
Françoise is a nurse by trade and studied Healthcare Management and Policy  at Erasmus University Rotterdam. After a consulting career, she has worked as company secretary and manager for strategy and policy at Fonteynenburg, a mental healthcare organization that offers supported living services. Currently, Françoise is working on the completion of her PhD.

 
When not at work, Françoise enjoys hiking, cooking and practicing ‘living with less’. You can also find her helping out at her husband’s chocolate factory in Rotterdam.
