Research Fellow

This is an exciting opportunity to apply for a full-time postdoctoral position to work on a large UKRI-funded interdisciplinary project on enhancing climate resilience among farming and pastoralist communities in eastern Africa, led by Dr. Anna Rabinovich. The postdoctoral researcher will lead on the Social Psychology stream, which will test a group-based intervention aimed at strengthening community resilience and group norms that support implementation of co-selected nature-based solutions to land degradation.  This is a great opportunity if you are interested in collaborating across disciplines and cultures, excited by the prospect of working in the field and making an impact, and keen on travel and working with non-academic stakeholders. You will also need an excellent grasp of social psychological theory and brilliant quantitative research skills. Please contact Anna Rabinovich (a.rabinovich@sussex.ac.uk) for informal enquiries. The University is committed to equality and valuing diversity, and applications are particularly welcomed from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in Science, Technology, Engineering, Medicine and Mathematics (STEMM) at Sussex.
