Three-year postdoctoral associate in the social sciences with expertise in the countries of the Sahel / University of Florida — LIMITE : 04/03/2019

The Sahel Research Group (SRG) of the Center for African Studies at the University of Florida invites applications for a three-year postdoctoral associate in the social sciences with expertise in the countries of the Sahel. The SRG brings together an interdisciplinary team of scholars and graduate students with research interests in the Sahel, and strongly committed to working collaboratively with colleagues in the region.

We seek a dynamic scholar in a social science or closely related field, with a strong research focus on the contemporary socio-political or economic dynamics of one or more of the countries of the Francophone Sahel : Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso and Chad. We seek a colleague with a demonstrated commitment to academic research on the region, as well as a willingness and strong potential to engage with the policy community.

The appointment will include a 50% effort assignment to the postdoctoral associate’s own research and publication agenda, as well as a 50% assignment to coordinating and facilitating the collaborative activities of the SRG, including support for visiting scholars, conferences/workshops, grant writing, publications and social media presence. Depending on interest, there may be possibilities for teaching, as well as significant opportunities to propose creative initiatives and collaborative projects.

1. a current CV
2. a letter of application explaining research agenda, qualifications, and interest in the position
