Hello

My name is Jaap Draaisma, I'm a social geographer.

Amsterdam is the city I live in for almost all of my life.

Besides this research on the development of Amsterdam, I'm engaged in the development of cultural spaces and the alternative culture of Amsterdam.

Municipality of Amsterdam

Department of Research, Information and Statistics (OIS)

Jeroen Slot, head of this department, immediately welcomed the investigation enthusiastically and promised all support.

Hester Booi, who specializes in migration, provides us with the most up-to-date information and figures. As a result, for example, we always kept a good eye on the effects of corona on the influx and outflow of residents.
