København Ø
Danish Institute for International Studies (DIIS) invites applications for a 3-year position as Postdoc Researcher, starting on 1 March 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter. The researcher will be part of the collaborative research project ‘Diaspora Humanitarianism in Complex Crises’, focusing on Somalia.
The Project
The D-Hum research project explores how Somali diaspora groups mobilize, channel and deliver humanitarian assistance to Somalia during complex humanitarian crises. Based on multi-sited and simultaneous fieldwork in Somalia, Kenya and Europe, the project examines movements of goods, people and ideas, from crisis-affected areas, hubs for humanitarian agencies and diaspora activities, to settlement countries. Theoretically, D-Hum will develop the concept of humanitarian infrastructures to analyze material forms of transport, communication systems and technologies as well as the institutions and social networks that facilitate the support. The project thereby aims at producing theoretically informed and empirically based research as well as enhancing policy development and collaboration between international humanitarian agencies and diaspora actors.
The postdoc is encouraged to conduct approx. five months fieldwork and participate in D-Hum project activities, including joint case studies, co-authored publications and dissemination. Applicants are invited to develop a concept note that takes its point of departure in the following research question, with a focus on Somali transnational diaspora humanitarianism that links Somalia, Kenya and Europe:
We welcome a broad range of interpretations and suggestions of how the project may be approached.
The position is aimed at applicants who have obtained their PhD degree in the past three years (due to the eligibility requirements of DIIS) – an older degree may be acceptable under special circumstances such as sick leave, parental leave or similar. We are particularly looking for candidates with research experience in humanitarianism and/or diaspora studies. Fieldwork experience in Somalia as well as Somali language skills are desirable.
Furthermore, the applicant must have demonstrated an ability to publish and communicate research in accordance with the Danish Code of Conduct for Research Integrity.
General Information
D-Hum is organized in a consortium that comprises DIIS; International Development Studies, University of Nairobi; Rako Research and Communication Centre in Hargeisa; and Rift Valley Institute in Nairobi. The project runs between July 2019 and June 2024, with joint project activities in all sites. The postdoc will be employed with and based at DIIS in Nordhavn, Copenhagen.
DIIS is a leading public institute for independent research and analysis of international affairs. We conduct and communicate multidisciplinary research on globalisation, security, development and foreign policy. Within these areas, we aim to be agenda setting in research, policy and public debate.
DIIS offers a dynamic and innovative international research environment with a focus on professionalism, flexibility and mutual respect amongst all colleagues. It is important that all employees play a proactive and constructive role in the DIIS community through a high level of attendance and involvement in the workplace. At the same time, we show consideration for each other as colleagues and value different perspectives.

Proficiency in written and oral English is required for the position, while it is possible to apply without prior knowledge of Danish – however, the successful candidate is expected to learn Danish within the duration of the contract.
All qualified applicants – regardless of national, ethnic or religious background, gender, age or sexual orientation – are encouraged to apply.
Terms of employment
The expected start date for the position is 1 March 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter. The employment is limited to three years and expires automatically at the end of the period.
