Susann Schaefer

Heidelberg University is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a three-year DFG-funded project titled “Narratives for Community Resilience and Solidarity: Hybrid Risk Methods for Inclusive and Sustainable Adaptation.” The project focuses on how narratives can support community resilience and solidarity while developing hybrid approaches to understanding and addressing risk. Its research agenda connects inclusive adaptation with sustainability, bringing together social, environmental, and methodological perspectives on how communities respond to changing risks. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to this interdisciplinary research environment at Heidelberg University and to the development of knowledge relevant to inclusive and sustainable adaptation. The position is part of a DFG project and offers the opportunity to work on research at the intersection of narratives, community resilience, solidarity, risk methods, and adaptation.
