Professor in Climate Law and Sustainability
4 weeks ago
Durham Law School seeks to appoint a Professor in Climate Law and Sustainability (Research & Education) as part of a strategic investment in Durham's Centre for Sustainable Development Law and Policy: Just Transitions to a Net Zero World (JusTN0W). The ambitious and interdisciplinary initiative JusTN0W is funded by a £5 million investment that will see seven academic staff appointed to lead Durham's commitment to a better and fairer world in the face of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental degradation. Our initiative brings together academic colleagues across Law, Economics, Computer Science and Natural Sciences to advance the knowledge and the implementation of just transitions to net zero at international, national and local levels. The work programme comprises four strands of work. Each strand sets forth a range of objectives, including grant capture activity and engagement with different partners. More information on JusTN0W can be found here JusTN0W - Durham University .
You will be joining an interdisciplinary team of colleagues at an exciting moment where we are shaping and developing cutting-edge research and impact agenda to attract sustainable research funding and leverage research capacity. We build on existing links into international governance frameworks such as the Conferences of Parties (COPs) under the umbrella of the international climate change regime. By collaborating and harnessing expertise across disciplines, the JusTN0W initiative will support your groundbreaking solutions to address the climate crisis.
This position offers the candidate the opportunity to focus on research and grant income generation. All Professors are encouraged to focus on quality and innovation throughout your research and educational activity. But we'll also look to you to provide genuine leadership and citizenship - not just in your field, but across the University environment, and in the way your department functions administratively. The candidate should have a well-established international network in academia and beyond, which can be used to develop pathways to impact. It is important for the success of JusTN0W that the team grows and works together towards achieving the objectives of the project.
This post is an exciting opportunity to make a major contribution to the development of internationally excellent research and teaching while allowing you unrivalled opportunities to progress and embed your career in an exciting and progressive department.
