My research interests focus on understanding the processes controlling geohazards, and the spatial/temporal distribution of geohazard events, in data scarcity context, with a specific focus on Africa. I more specifically study physical processes governing volcanism, landslides and floods, using different techniques of remote sensing and photogrammetry.

I am particularly interested in studies requiring original approaches, in complex adventurous natural environments, where data are limited or inexistant.

This research is framed by the interests and key preoccupations of my African partners, with whom I actively collaborate through my two institutions, i.e., the VUB and the AfricaMuseum.

The tackled research questions do not only feed local needs, but also contribute to global societal and environmental challenges, in terms of both disaster risk reduction and sustainable development.
