Reminder: Fellowships Anthropogenic Soils project

Still open for applications: We are thrilled to announce one PhD Fellowship & one Postdoctoral Fellowship (fully salaried, 3+1 year) as part of the multidisciplinary project: “Anthropogenic Soils: Recuperating Human-Soil Relationships on a Troubled Planet (SOILS)” – funded by the Norwegian Research Council (large-scale interdisciplinary Fellesløft project), based at the University of Oslo, Norway.

SOILS studies the ways people in different parts of the world have invented, practiced, and imagined ways of recuperating soil health. The positions are connected to three of the project’s work packages that include studies of repairing contaminated, toxic, and depleted soils in different parts of the globe – from South Asia, Central Asia/Eastern Europe to Norway and the Arctic – as well as artistic and multimedia research into the ways in which Indigenous writers and artists offer alternative modes of relating to soils, and for building possible futures of earthly survival.

• Doctoral Fellowship in Science and Technology Studies (based at TIK, UiO), with a focus on repairing toxic or radioactive soils in Northern/Eastern Europe or Central Asia. https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/234614/phd-fellow-in-science-and-technology-studies-anthropogenic-soils.
