USA Africa Dialogue Series - Fwd: 2 PhD and 1 Postdoc Position

The department of Political Science at the University of Oslo is hiring for one Post-doctoral position and two PhD fellowships with a focus on conflict and peacebuilding in Africa, fieldwork experience, and solid quantitative or qualitative methods skills, to work in my new ERC research project 'ResilienceBuilding: Social Resilience, Gendered Dynamics, and Local Peace in Protracted Conflicts'. The project focuses on Nigeria, Central African Republic, South Sudan and Kenya. 

 

All are 4-year positions with a good salary and research support funds and UiO has an excellent and international political science department. 

 

Candidates for the post-doc position need to have submitted their PhD dissertation before the application deadline of 5 January 2021. Candidates for the PhD fellowship need to have their master's degree in hand and submit their MA dissertation.

About the project: 

The ResilienceBuilding project investigates the causes and consequences of social resilience in protracted armed conflicts, with a focus on Nigeria, Central African Republic, South Sudan and Kenya. It asks how civilians and communities develop social resilience and adapt to conflict dynamics in ways that prevent or mitigate violence, how they maintain resilience and prevent renewed vulnerability to conflict re-escalation, and how social resilience impacts peacebuilding and development. The project further focuses on interlinking national and local dynamics of communal conflict and civil war to study the potential and limitations of international and local peacebuilding efforts and barriers to sustainable peace. The research into social resilience and multi-level conflict integrates a gender perspective. This means that research examines gendered coping mechanisms and women's movements and peacebuilding agency on the national and local level.

 

I would be very grateful if you could share the information with candidates who come to mind. 

 

All the best,

Jana
