About the Position
This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research about Politics and the Environment, both broadly defined. You will have the opportunity to develop research expertise and shape the direction of this growing field. The goal of the position is for the research team to develop a strong research agenda that will endure for the coming years.
