PhD Positions in Power Dynamics of Social Innovation
2 maanden geleden
We are seeking two PhD students to join our research team at the Copernicus Institute for Sustainable Development, Utrecht University. The successful candidates will be part of the POTRANSI project, a 5-year research project funded by the European Research Council (ERC), which aims to understand the power dynamics underlying social innovation movements.
The PhD students will focus on theoretical and empirical investigations of two or more social innovation movements (decentralized energy production, the sharing economy, eco-communities, and/or participatory democracy) across Europe and beyond. They will study translocal networks and conduct local case studies in Portugal, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
The PhD students will also engage in transdisciplinary inquiry and action research, contributing to the development and nurturing of POTRANSI's Transformative Power Arena as a community of practice. This role not only aims to understand power dynamics and social innovation but also to empower transformative change towards justice and sustainability.
About the ProjectThe POTRANSI project is a multidisciplinary research project that brings together scholars from various fields, including political science, innovation sciences, sociology, organization studies, geography, and science & technology studies. The project aims to explore the transformative power of social innovation and its potential to address global challenges such as climate change, inequality, and social injustice.
The project will use a range of research methods, including qualitative research, action research, and transdisciplinary inquiry, to investigate the power dynamics underlying social innovation movements. The PhD students will be part of a dynamic and collaborative research team and will have the opportunity to work with leading scholars in the field.
About the TeamThe Copernicus Institute for Sustainable Development is a leading research institute at Utrecht University, with a strong focus on sustainability and innovation. The institute is part of the Faculty of Geosciences and consists of five research groups, including the Innovation Studies group, where the PhD students will be embedded.
The research team is led by Prof. Dr. Flor Avelino, who has extensive experience in research and teaching in the field of innovation studies and sustainability. The team is known for its collaborative and inclusive approach to research and is committed to producing high-quality research that has a positive impact on society.
What We OfferWe offer a temporary position for one year with an extension to a total of four years upon a successful assessment in the first year. The PhD students will receive a gross monthly salary between €2.770 and €3.539 in the case of full-time employment (salary scale P under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU)).
In addition to the terms of employment laid down in the CAO NU, Utrecht University has a number of schemes and facilities of its own for employees, including a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave, and flexible terms of employment based on the CAO NU.
