Research
Michel Dückers is research program coordinator Disasters and Environmental Hazards. The focus of his research is on (1) safety and health effects of exposure to disasters, crises and other environmental hazards; (2) The optimal response by governments, public and private organizations, civil society and citizens before, during and after the exposure/crisis.
His research fits within a long history of health monitoring and evaluation research at Nivel, depending heavily on routinely registered health data by general practices across the Netherlands (Nivel Primary Care Database).
Michel has been involved in recent European projects aimed at optimizing the management of public health crises and vulnerability reduction, with an emphasis on topics such as health monitoring and surveillance, post-disaster mental health and psychosocial support, infectious disease threats and health care for refugees.
Michel is an advisor for national and local governments in the event of public health crises.
