Durham Law School and the Department of Economics seek to appoint an outstanding candidate to contribute to the internationally leading JusTN0W initiative ('Just Transitions to a Net Zero World'). JustN0W is an ambitious and interdisciplinary initiative funded by a £5 million strategic 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 (https://www.durham.ac.uk/research/institutes-and-centres/csdlp/justn0w/).
This post will be a joint appointment between the Law School and the Department of Economics at Durham University. Applicants must demonstrate high-quality research in the field of economics of environmental sustainability, appreciation of the legal and governance aspects surrounding the sustainability discourse, and ability to teach our students to an exceptional standard and to fully engage in the services, citizenship, and values of the University. Ability and willingness to engage at the intersection of Law and Economics areas is also highly valued.
