Section intervention methodology
Marieke de Wijse-Van Heeswijk (44, mother of three, living in a small village in the Netherlands near the German Border Millingen)is external PhD researcher at Nijmegen school of Management (Radboud University, the Netherlands, promotors Prof. Etienne Rouwette and Prof. Sander Meijerink). Marieke studies the effects of interventions in and around game simulations on learning/change with participants. Marieke is a member ISAGA board (from 2004-2008 and 2021 until now) and member of the Dutch ISAGA branch Saganet (since 2004) and NASAGA (since 2020). Marieke was guest editor for the special issue facilitation of simulation games in the Game and Simulation Journal and is now associate editor. Marieke was a change and learning consultant and game designer/facilitator for GITP International from 2004 until 2015. From 2015 she started her research on the effects of different facilitation approaches in various types of simulation games. Marieke uses both qualitative, quantitative and action research methodology and is used to a multidisciplinary research approach taking in perspectives from sociology, organizational sciences, public administration and philosophy. She is also the host of the special interest groups Facilitation, Sustainability and Game Science at ISAGA.

Specific projects:
- Developing ethical standards for professional facilitators of simulation games and facilitators that use gamifications and gamified interventions
- Running enroads sessions online (see www.climateinteractive.org) as much as I can to allow anyone who wants to get acquainted with the effects of policy decisions on the world climate
