Ori Rubin

I am an economist and urban planner, working as a lecturer at department of Human Geography, Planning and International Development, University of Amsterdam.

​

My latest contributions on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mobility:

​

What can we learn from the COVID-19 pandemic about how people experience working from home and commuting (with Nikolaeva, A., Nello-Deakin, S., & te Brömmelstroet, M.)

​

Living without commuting: experiences of a less mobile life under COVID-19 (with Nikolaeva, A., Lin, Y. T., Nello-Deakin, S., & von Schönfeld, K. C.)

 

I teach courses at bachelor and master levels and supervise various thesis projects.

 

In 2023 I was nominated for the Teacher of the Year Award at Wageningen University.

​

Previously, I researched the spatial impact of the Noord/Zuidlijn metro in Amsterdam on station areas, and especially land-use changes, changes in functions and in function mix, and on the perception of public space by users.

​

I hold a PhD degree from the University of Groningen. My dissertation focused on the role travel mobility plays in social networks of individuals.
