Hi!

Rozanne Henzen currently works at the Waste Program of the Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate of the Netherlands, and is an external PhD Candidate at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam), Green Criminology Group! Researching waste colonialism and just circular transitions in the textiles and plastics industries, with a focus on fossil-based materials. In her previous roles she was a case writer at Sasin School of Management and researcher and circular economy expert at the Sustainable Transformation Lab of Antwerp Management School. She is the writer of three books: Transforming our Critical Systems, Mastering the Circular Economy and De kleine Circulaire economie voor Dummies. Rozanne is fueled by her passion for circular change.

She holds a Master of Science in Strategic Communication Sciences (magna cum laude) from the University of Antwerp and graduated on circular logistics and consumer behaviour in the textile industry, together with the Flanders Innovation Cluster for Logistics. She considers herself a ‘forever student,’ eager to both build on her academic foundations in consumer behaviour, and stay in tune with the latest circular economy developments. In 2020 Rozanne was recognized as one of the Sustainable Young 100 in the Netherlands.

​

When not conducting research or writing, Rozanne loves discovering other cultures, finding an awesome second-hand outfit, listening to podcasts, reading detectives or sci-fi novels, going to the market on Saturdays, learning new skills like sewing and upcycling her own clothes and elephants, she really love elephants!​​​
