Postdoc in Investigative Data Practices Climate Rights

Location

Salary

NOK 594 500 per annum

About the job

The Trondheim Academy of Fine Art seeks application for a fixed-term, three-year Postdoctoral position in Investigative data Practices. The position is part of the Norwegian Research Council funded “Climate Rights: Designing Evidence for Climate Justice” project hosted by the Trondheim Academy of Fine Art at NTNU in collaboration with the Urban Theory Lab at the University of Chicago.

Rights-driven climate cases represent a global, civil society-led effort to address the accountability gap left by the lack of decisive action on climate change. The Climate Rights (climate justice and land rights) project’s goal is to develop methodologies to tackle the challenge of representing and integrating the diverse, multi-faceted nature of evidence across geographies of climate cases. To deepen the understanding of what constitutes evidence of environmental destruction, the project will reframe climate cases beyond conventional human rights and jurisdictional frameworks by grounded its approach in political ecology and design research.

You will join the Climate Rights project’s interdisciplinary team of artist-researchers, architects, geographers, and climate scientists to help reshape the way scientific evidence and ecological knowledge of environmental destruction are produced, represented, and contested through undertaking a series of investigations in legal contexts (e.g. the International Court of Justice’s advisory opinion on climate change and on Saami land expropriation), and through the project’s other ambitious research activities and public outreach programme.

Your immediate leader is Head of Department.

About the postdoctoral position in Investigative Data Practices

The Postdoctoral researcher will work closely with the PI to develop the Climate Rights project’s theoretical and practical approach to investigative data practices. The postdoc will be primarily responsible for investigating, assembling, and testing methodologies for data collection, spatial data analysis, modelling 3D environments, and visualization using diverse data and implementing them on digital/web platforms. This work will involve exploring emerging technologies, spatial media, and platforms used in human rights investigations with a critical view on their legal admissibility. It will also entail working closely with the PI and the research team in developing and implementing research ethics for the project’s data requirements. More generally, the Postdoc will support the Climate Rights project’s research activities (e.g. organizing research seminars), and ongoing work on developing cutting edge artistic research at KIT.
