The Department of Public Administration at the Nijmegen School of Management (Radboud University, Nijmegen, Netherlands) is seeking applications for the position of Postdoctoral Research Fellow. As part of the interdisciplinary faculty research programme / hot spot GAINS (Governance and Innovation in Social Services), the Department of Public Administration has conducted several research projects on the governance and delivery of local public services, a domain which has undergone profound changes over the past decade. In the context of local care services, there have been major initiatives to make services more responsive to the needs of specific groups, such as migrants.
You will conduct theoretical and empirical research into how municipalities and local care providers reach out to migrant populations and to what extent such efforts are in tune with the life worlds of these populations. In other words, you will study the extent to which inclusiveness is part of the efforts to customise social services to the needs and demands of migrant groups. A scoping review of the literature on inclusiveness and social service delivery is part of the research to be conducted, complemented with comparative case research in Dutch municipalities.
Fixed-term contract: 2 years.
