Vacancy PhD position Transforming Governance for Nature-Based Water Solutions
We seek a highly motivated PhD candidate to join the EU HORIZON project WATERGRID, an international collaboration demonstrating nature-based solutions for climate-resilient water management, focusing on drought. The project brings together 22 partners from diverse disciplines and sites across Europe, including the UK, Portugal, and Spain. WATERGRID will develop, test, and implement various nature-based solutions while exploring the economic, institutional, and governance conditions that enable their uptake across different environmental and political contexts.
The PhD candidate will work with researchers examining processes that hinder implementation in the project’s case studies and explore leverage points to overcome these. Deliverables include a detailed analysis of actor capacities, networks, and dynamics. The candidate will visit selected project sites where required to conduct field-based collaboration. The work will contribute to academic knowledge and practical governance strategies to strengthen NBS adoption in water-stressed regions of Europe.
