Dear all,
I am advertising a 3-year postdoc position in environmental politics here
at Dublin City University. The position will be based at the DCU School of
Law and Government https://www.dcu.ie/lawandgovernment and Centre for
Climate and Society http://www.dcu.ie/climate.
The postdoctoral researcher will work across two externally-funded research
projects (50% of time devoted to each project):
RETOOL: Strengthening democratic governance for climate transitions,
a new Horizon Europe project coordinated by DCU that seeks to advance our
understanding of how to address the twin challenges of responding to the
climate imperative while strengthening and reinvigorating democratic
governance. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to conceptual and
empirical research on climate change and democracy, including
conceptualizing types of democracy and democratic institutions in a
multilevel context and empirical research on the evolving roles of
democratic institutions in climate governance.
Climate + Biodiversity and Water Co-Centre, a major new
tri-jurisdictional (Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Great Britain)
research centre focused on the interlinked challenges of climate change,
biodiversity, and water quality and co-funded by Science Foundation
Ireland, the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs of
Northern Ireland, and UK Research and Innovation. The postdoctoral
researcher will contribute to a project led by DCU entitled “Strengthening
policy and governance frameworks for climate, biodiversity and water
quality”.
Applicants must have a PhD in environmental politics or a cognate
discipline. The job advert is available here:
