Postdoctoral fellow on Dynamics of interconnected crises in the global economy and the environment (pre-call)

The new landscape of interconnected crises emphasizes the importance of understanding how components of the global system absorb, transmit and link together social and ecological shocks. However, there is a lack of empirical methods to study these questions.

This post-doc will aim to develop such methods and apply them to test theories of global system dynamics and resilience under multiple crises. This will likely entail combining qualitative as well as quantitative methods in innovative ways.
