Dr. Yael Borofsky is a Lecturer in Spatial Development and Urban Policy at ETH Zurich. Her research examines infrastructure challenges in informal settlements, with focus on mobility, lighting, and energy access in marginalized communities. Current projects analyze how public lockdowns affect movement patterns in South African townships.
Research explores the intersection of technical infrastructure solutions with sociopolitical systems. Recent publications investigate nighttime safety in under-resourced communities and pedestrian behavior theories in informal urban contexts.
Field-based methodologies characterize Borofsky's approach, utilizing sensor technologies and spatial analysis to document urban inequalities. Her work informs policy discussions on equitable development and global poverty reduction strategies.
