The #IPCC is now hireing ‘chapter scientists’ to support the author teams for the upcoming IPCC Report.

If you are an early career scientist with strong synthesis and organisational skills, and from a developing country or a country in transition, do check this out!

Welcome to Europe!

So excited for this! Spoiler alert: I loved the book and can't wait to discuss it with @jennifer-clapp.bsky.social!

I don’t want my class to prepare students for ‘the real world.’

I want my class to help students dream of a better world.

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

Come be my colleague!! New professorship in Poli Sci w/ focus on Environment and Development!! jobs.unibas.ch/offene-stell...

In a post-peak public engagement world where mainstream papers have dropped outlets like the Monkey Cage, what avenues exist for academics to get their work and insights in front of a wider public audience or directly to policymakers? A thread of examples from my own experience. 1/

I LOVE this essay by @patrickfreyne.bsky.social and agree with it all. (Personally i will be ditching my ridiculously brilliant, productive friends and finding some lazy losers instead) www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Correction: this is what Basel really looks like, I think the internet bamboozled me 😅 I promise, all other info is accurate!

I am hiring 2 PhD students and 1 postdoc! Come to beautiful Basel & join our friendly, dynamic research group to work on the implementation of due diligence legislations in the coffee, cocoa, and palm oil sectors!

really happy this place is picking up steam so I can go back to ignoring LinkedIn in good conscience 😅

Very excited to announce that I am the lucky recipient of one of these Starting Grants! Starting Jan 25 we will look at due diligence legislation implementation and their role in making agri-food supply chains more sustainable. We will be hiring 2 PhD students and 1 postdoc; announcements out soon!

As many of us are moving to this platform, I've created a list of researchers active in global environmental governance. It might be a useful starting point, and I'll continue adding to it as I discover more go.bsky.app/7sZRvzU

All information about application procedures and requirements can be found here: unibas.ch/de/Arbeiten-... (position: Postdoc position in Sustainability Research Group); happy to answer q's; we will start reviewing applications starting in May.

I will be starting in Basel as Associate Professor and Head of the Sustainability Research Group on 01.06., so you would be participating in the initial building up of the group - I myself was in the same position in my postdoc, and it's a really valuable learning experience!

Come work with me in beautiful Basel! I am recruiting for a postdoc position (2+4 years!) in the governance of sustainable agri-food systems, focusing on the implementation of mandatory sustainability legislation in tropical agri-food commodity chains. Ideal start date: 01.08.24

"I don’t mean to exceptionalize academia....Rather, I want to normalize academia—to have it seen as a job rather than a calling."

Hell yeah!

Re-upping as the postdoc deadline approaches!

I conceive this as a nice transitional position for a person with a Master’s degree that is interested in continuing on in academia and wants to gain some experience and insights in doing (particularly qualitative) research. Feel free to reach out if you have questions!

Projects mainly are focused on sustainability governance in global value chains of tropical commodities; tasks range from data organization to support in data analysis, lit review, and writing papers.

Small print: Applicants need to be based in Spain but work-from-home is possible; need to have a uni degree in political science, sustainability, economics, business administration, social sciences or a related field, with exposure to research methods

Job opportunity! I am recruiting a *full-time* research assistant (pre-doc) to work with me on several projects between Jan and Aug 2024. Great to build experience in qual research; co-authorship possible! Check call & apply: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/168927

Thanks so much!!
