The SiDLab is currently seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a one-year position (100%) in a research project led by professors Bouffanais, Schubiger, and Wernli on global governance and gender-based violence.

The position is based at ETH Zurich and is co-supervised by Prof. Livia Schubiger (ETHZ), Prof. Didier Wernli (UNIGE), and Prof. Roland Bouffanais (UNIGE). Selection will start in December 2024.

The project will explore the evolution of norms related to gender-based violence in resolutions adopted by the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) and the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) from their creation to nowadays by employing a data science approach. The study will utilize Natural Language Processing (NLP) to systematically extract and analyse relevant language and concepts from the whole corpus of resolutions, tracing the development and shifts in gender-based violence related discourse over time.

Deadline for application: 30 November 2024
