**About us**:
The UCL Institute for Risk and Disaster Reduction (IRDR) inspires innovation and evidence-based practice focused on improving disaster risk reduction (DRR) through our research, education, and partnerships. This creates a better life for many people by reducing the negative impacts of disasters. The IRDR is an exciting cross-UCL department, which leads research, knowledge exchange and teaching in the fields of risk and disaster reduction and humanitarian action. By providing a focus for UCL’s activities the IRDR, with its breadth of disciplinary emphasis, promotion of novel multidisciplinary research and translation into practice, aims to assume a role of leadership both in the UK and internationally. The Department has 30 members of academic and teaching staff, 12 members of research staff ranging from research assistants to professorial research fellows and 9 members of professional services staff. The Department is in the Faculty of Mathematics and Physical Sciences (MAPS), but works across all UCL’s faculties, and contributes to UCL’s Grand Challenges. Research. The IRDR strives to produce world-leading research in disaster risk reduction through a multidisciplinary perspective for the long-term benefit of humanity. The IRDR has established the Humanitarian Institute, Centre for Digital Public Health in Emergencies, Centre for Gender and Disaster, and jointly with UCL Department of Science and Technology Studies the Warning Research Centre. The IRDR conducts research around the themes of disaster risk reduction and resilience, cascading crises, natural hazards, climate change risk and adaptation, humanitarian crisis response, GIS and remote sensing, law and economics, conflict and migration, catastrophe modelling, warning, digital health in emergencies, and inclusivity including gender responsive resilience, in order to integrate education, research, innovation and enterprise for the long-term benefit of humanity. Teaching. The IRDR aims to develop leaders and experts in disaster risk reduction research, education, and practice. We run PhD and MRes programmes in risk and disaster reduction, masters programmes in risk, disaster and resilience and risk and disaster science, and an undergraduate programme in global humanitarian studies, all with a diverse and cross-disciplinary international intake. We have about 25 PhD students, 90 masters students and will have about 180 students across the three years of the BSc programme from 2023-2024 academic year. Knowledge Exchange, Public Policy and Research Impact. The IRDR seeks to empower all to break down barriers to global DRR knowledge. Thus knowledge exchange is a core part of the mission of the IRDR, which it seeks to fulfil by publishing high-impact reports, engagement with the media and building long-term partnerships. IRDR members have joined and led several field missions and contributed to multidisciplinary reports. These reports have been drawn on by the UK Cabinet Office and other government bodies in advice to ministers. IRDR staff contributed substantially to the UCL-Lancet Commission on Migration and Health. The IRDR has close links with London First, the business representative grouping, private companies, London Resilience and UK Government, including the Cabinet Office, and is developing links with intergovernmental organizations such as the International Migration Organization, Plan International, UN Women and other NGOs. UCL IRDR runs regular events to engage the public and potential partners in issues relating to risk and disaster reduction and humanitarian action, such as its Annual Conference and Humanitarian Summit.
**About the role**:
The main purpose of the role is to carry out research, teaching, enabling and administration within the IRDR, especially in areas related to hyrdro-meteorological and/or meteorological risk but also across the wider field of risk and disaster reduction.
