Densification is the central paradigm of Swiss spatial planning. Yet, the challenge is to realize densification democratically and without intensifying or creating new socio-economic inequalities. We are searching a candidate with a master degree (or near completion of) in political science, planning, sociology or related social science disciplines with strong interest and curiosity in urban planning issues and public opinion.
