Karin Geuijen is assistant professor at Utrecht University School of Governance.

She coordinates the master programme Public Management and the honours programme Young Innovators.

Karin’s main research interests focus on the role which hybrid (multilevel and multisector) networks have in creating public value, especially in the domains of justice and security.

She co-leads an international consortium which researches the ways in which non EU-migrants participate in revitalising depopulating and (economically) declining areas in Europe (Welcoming Spaces). In addition, she co-leads a monitoring project on innovative financial arrangements for social enterprises (social impact bonds). Karin participated in an international and interdisciplinary research team which monitored and evaluated innovations in refugee reception and integration (U-RLP) and has developed a framework for evaluating international police co-operation.
