The vision and work of Caroline Nevejan

Openresearch editorial board Author Caroline Nevejan Author

From 2016 to june 2025, Prof. dr. Caroline Nevejan was the Chief Science Officer of the City of Amsterdam. In this capacity she orchestrated research between the municipality of Amsterdam and the different scientific, academic and artistic universities in the city. Het Nieuwe Insituut asked her to direct the parallel research program of the Dutch contribution to to the 17th International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia 2021. With her background as a researcher (she is a professor by special appointment at the University of Amsterdam) and as designer who has been involved with the emerging network society and digital culture since the 1980's, Nevejan was and is particularly well suited to this task, especially since the Covid-19 crises meant that there was no other choice than to intergrate the digital environment into the research itself.
