The School of Geography at the University of Leeds is currently seeking a PhD candidate to undertake a PhD linked to the UKRI-funded GENERATE project ‘Gender, Generation and Climate Change (GENERATE): Creative Approaches to Building Inclusive and Climate Resilient Cities in Uganda and Indonesia’, led by Dr. Katie McQuaid. GENERATE explores the gender-age-urban interface of climate change.Â
The PhD student will be based in the School of Geography at the University of Leeds, but you will conduct up to 9 months of ethnographic fieldwork in the Global South. You will develop a project that investigates how gender and sexuality shape impacts, experiences and responses to climate change.
