We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a 2.5-year position (0.8 FTE; 30 months). The postdoctoral researcher will become part of the coordinating team of the EQUALSTRENGTH consortium and will work in close collaboration with Dr. Valentina Di Stasio. The postdoc will work at the European Research Centre on Migration and Ethnic Relations (ERCOMER) at the Department of Interdisciplinary Social Science. ERCOMER has a strong research track record in interethnic relations with a particular focus on international migration and immigrant integration, ethnic discrimination, ethnic identity formation and interethnic networks, attitudes towards immigrants and immigration. It is part of the Dutch research school Interuniversity Center for Social Science Theory and Methodology (ICS).
The EQUALSTRENGTH consortium EQUALSTRENGTH is a consortium of ten international partners (Utrecht University, University College Dublin, University of Oxford, University of Amsterdam, The German Center for Integration and Migration Research, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, The Budapest Institute, Charles University, The Spanish National Research Council and University of Lausanne), funded through a Horizon Europe grant. The consortium brings together scholars from a broad range of social sciences (e.g., social psychology, sociology, demography, economics, social policy). The aim of the consortium is to investigate why and to what extent ethnic, racial, and religious minorities are exposed to discriminatory behaviour and prejudicial attitudes in multiple life domains (e.g., employment, housing, access to services). Moreover, the project examines whether and how this continuous exposure to prejudice and discrimination accumulates at the intersection of stigmatized identities and across life domains.In addition, Utrecht University offers excellent secondary conditions, including an attractive retirement scheme, (partly paid) parental leave and flexible employment conditions (multiple choice model).
