Postdoctoral Researcher in Sustainable Development
6 days ago
The Department of Urban and Rural Development at Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join our team. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will contribute to our research projects focusing on issues of justice, knowledge, and power in agriculture and forestry, natural resource management, and development in rural areas.
Our division conducts research, teaching, and collaboration that focuses on these issues, seeing rural areas as dynamic spaces created by a network of relationships spanning between the urban and rural and across the globe. We focus on ideas about what development is and how these ideas have consequences in rural areas both in and between the Global North and the Global South.
Project DescriptionThe EU Biodiversa+ funded project Increasing Sustainability of Agribiologicals by Living Labs in sub-Saharan Africa (inSALSA) aims to enhance adoption of agricultural biologicals over conventional agrichemicals in smallholder farming in Sub-Saharan Africa. The project involves investigating farmer attitudes, needs, and preferences in 'living labs' in Kenya and South Africa, as well as replication labs in Ethiopia and capacity building labs in Italy.
The living labs focus on the use of biologicals to combat pests in tomato and potato, coordinated by local universities and combining social scientific with natural scientific research and technical development. The labs include stakeholder dialogues and connections to policy and practice.
Your RoleAs a postdoc, you will work in a smaller research group at SLU under the leadership of Prof. Flora Hajdu and Dr. Johanna Bergman-Lodin, collaborating with larger research groups from several other European and African institutions. You will collect and analyze social scientific data in the living labs, as well as in the wider communities and at policy level in Kenya and South Africa.
You will need to be able to work independently with this data and publish your findings. You will also be expected to understand natural scientific perspectives and write and publish together with researchers from other disciplines.
