Join Team UofG!Opportunities within the School of Humanities for Marie Sklodowska-Curie PhD Fellows:Marie Sklodowska-Curie PhD Fellow – Changing Land Use over the Holocene: Southern Africa - Vacancy Ref: 148771Marie Sklodowska-Curie PhD Fellow – Land cover changes and formation of cultural landscapes – Vacancy Ref: 148772These UKRI-funded PhD fellowships are part of the European Commission funded Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Doctoral Network (DN) (101120560) within the project “Dryland Agriculture and Land Use; Past, Present and Future Resilience (AGRI-DRY)”. https://agri-dry.org The network aims to develop an interdisciplinary approach to traditional crop cultivation through the recognition of the complementary value of cultural heritage and sustainable living. Human cultural development is inextricably linked with the development of agriculture, and the key role of traditional knowledge of indigenous people and local communities for ecosystem management and sustainable use of resources is now recognized, in the light of climate change. The international network project AGRI-DRY will train 10 doctoral candidates in new interdisciplinary approaches to examine three interlinked research questions: (i) how and why have agricultural systems emerged; (ii) what were the impacts of these systems; (iii) what can be learnt from these ancient and traditional agricultural systems. Our emphasis is on drylands, using the Mediterranean Basin, North Africa and the Sahara, and Southern Africa as our main geographic focus.
