We view disasters as the serious harm to communities, economies or the environment triggered by 'natural' or human-generated hazards, such as extreme weather or industrial accidents. The ideal candidate will be skilled at analyzing the social, political and economic factors that cause disasters, such as institutions and policies, as well as poverty, inequality, and violence. We are especially interested in scholar-practitioners who view disasters through the lenses of sustainable development, gender, conflict, rights, food, natural resources, and/or environmental justice."
