On the basis of SDG 16 and by means of a new centre addressing law and sustainability, we want to critically explore and challenge (a number of) the legal aspects regarding the Sustainable Development Goals.
The research of the centre will focus on three areas:
- Legal scopes, covering the themes related to institutions in a wide sense
- Physical scopes, covering the themes related to climate, the environment and natural resources
- Social scopes, covering the themes related to welfare and inequality
We anticipate an application from you who want to help implement our vision. Along with the head of centre, you will become a part of our research focus and the team forming the mainstay as for meeting our ambitions for the centre.
The length of the positions is one or two years.
One of the vacant positions will be associated with the collective research project described below under a). We anticipate applications for this specific project (a) below) as well as applications for an individual research project formulated by the applicant (b) below).
About you
We expect you to
- Have a relevant PhD degree suited for the research focus indicated in a) and b) below.

- Have experience in research communication and/or teaching
- Want to participate in research collaborations
- Be curious, inventive and in possession of good interpersonal skills
- Be able to define a relevant and ambitious research question within a) or b) below:
- a) a contribution to a collective project which is a comparative analysis of regulation strategies as regards handling the climate crisis as well as the health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The project is led by the head of centre and encompasses several complementary sub-projects under the overall research question: “How is the regulation of the climate crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic handled in Danish, EU and UN institutions as for the behaviour of citizens and organisations, what determines the support, and how can this collectively contribute to understanding the correlations between SDG 16 and the other SDGs”. The project seeks to contribute to the knowledge on how social scientific and natural scientific (climate) information as well as health scientific (COVID-19) information is received by decision-makers with regulatory competences; which and how nonjudicial linguistic codes support or counteract the understanding of regulatory needs among legal and other societal actors; how the regulatory needs determined by social scientific, natural scientific and health scientific matters are translated into new duties for citizens, businesses and public organizations; how and whether these new duties are accepted; and how linguistic codes support or counteract the acceptance. Your project description is expected to use socio-legal, sociological, politological and/or communication theoretical methods in order to answer an independent research question in relation to the overall research question.
Or
- b) an individual research project within one or more of the above three tracks (1, 2 and/or 3). We particularly anticipate project proposals on climate regulation, including regulation at the crossroads between law and politics or law and sociology in a Danish, European and/or global context.
We offer
