dr. OLM (Océane) Duluins

Océane Duluins is a postdoctoral researcher working on sustainability transitions and food systems at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) in the Public Administration & Policy Group. She works on the TIPRO project (Tipping the Protein Transition).

In this project, she aims to identify and co-design coherent, multi-level policy mixes to accelerate the protein transition and to systematically analyse the political and institutional mechanisms that obstruct it. The project is part of a broader system-wide approach that seeks to identify leverage and tipping points across not only the political subsystem, but also consumer and distribution systems.

She completed her PhD at UCLouvain (Belgium) in the Sytra team, where her work examined the scientific narratives and systemic dynamics shaping the protein transition. Her dissertation conceptualised the protein transition as both an analytical and normative framework for rethinking the role of proteins in food systems.

Her research is marked by interdisciplinary collaboration and a reflexive approach to knowledge production. She focuses on epistemic diversity, researcher positionality, and the institutional conditions shaping interdisciplinary work. Throughout her academic career, she has participated in collaborative research groups and projects, contributing to both empirical research and methodological reflection.
