Hi everyone, Professor Aoife Daly, at University College Cork's School of Law, is working on a really interesting (and big) project on children's rights and climate action, which has a couple of exciting opportunities for PhD and post-doc research. I'm posting this at her request - please feel free to pass it on to others you think might be interested.
If you'd like more information, please contact her directly, at aoife.d...@ucc.ie. Cheers, John Knox Wake Forest University *PhD Opportunity* *The **Youth Climate Justice** project will analyse the growing trend of child and youth climate action, and particularly how children are claiming and asserting their own rights under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. * This PhD candidate will engage in academic analysis of litigation and other action taken by children to achieve climate justice; applying knowledge from Indigenous studies. Indigenous peoples are amongst the first affected by the climate crisis and the project will include Indigenous knowledge and approaches throughout. Previous experience in Indigenous studies AND work/volunteering with a community group (e.g. an environmental or youth group) is essential. Experience of children’s rights, environmental rights and/or first-hand field research is very desirable.
