Research Areas
Georgina works on research in the nexus between governance, public administration and law. In particular, she is interested in subjects surrounding trust in government and political trust.
Her PhD was titled: Damaged trust. Building trust through compensation policies after government-facilitated damage. In her research, Georgina designed an interdisciplinary framework of trust-building compensation policy based on legal, public administrative and political science insights. She used three extensive case studies – the construction of the North/South metro line in Amsterdam, the expansion of Schiphol Airport, and the consequences of gas extraction in Groningen – to analyze to what extent these theoretical insights have an effect in practice. Her model has since been used in various other Dutch cases.

Georgina teaches in the course ‘Constitutionele Vraagstukken in Europese Context’ (Constitutional Questions in European Context, Master’s).
In previous years, Georgina has taught seminars in the courses Introduction to Constitutional Law ( first-year Bachelor’s) and Introduction to Administrative Law (first-year Bachelor’s). Additionally, she coordinated and taught the Honours Class ‘Gas extraction in Groningen and the phenomenon of trust in government’.
