Zwetsloot is a MSc student at the Social-Ecological Resilience for Sustainable Development programme

Zwetsloot is a master’s student at the SRC. He came to the SRC to combine his interests in sustainability and systems thinking, and to apply his quantitative skills in working with complex systems. During the master’s programme he became inspired by post-growth economics as a means to achieve both ecological sustainability and social justice. He is currently writing his master’s thesis on the dynamics and interactions of post-growth policies in Sweden using system dynamics modelling.

Zwetsloot has a broad background in physics, mathematics, and philosophy. He holds a BSc in Liberal Arts and Sciences from University College Utrecht, with an exchange semester at UC Berkeley, as well as a BSc in Physics and Astronomy from Utrecht University, with a minor in complex systems. He worked for one year in research and consultancy for sustainability transitions in the Netherlands.

Beyond academia you will often find him climbing rocks, balancing on slacklines, or wandering about in the outdoors.
