Job Announcement

Postdoctoral Research Position:

Convergence Science Education and Indigenous Resilience

for the Rising Voices, Changing Coasts Hub

Deadline to apply: June 1, 2023

The Haskell Foundation seeks a postdoctoral research position focused on
educational development for the Rising Voices, Changing Coasts Hub. The
position will be based at Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence,
Kansas.  This is a 2-year position with an anticipated start date of July
1, 2023.

Background: The Haskell Foundation, which supports Haskell Indian Nations
University, is the fiscal-sponsor for the Rising Voices, Changing Coasts
(RVCC) Hub, a large-scale, 5-year project funded by the National Science
Foundation (NSF).

The RVCC-Hub is seeking a recent Ph.D. graduate in an interdisciplinary
degree, including education with a focused interest in coastal Indigenous
Peoples and  interdisciplinary and convergence science research. The RVCC
Hub will create a space for convergence of disciplines and epistemologies
where Indigenous knowledge-holders from diverse coastal regions will work
with university-trained social, ecosystem, and physical Earth system
scientists and students on transformative convergence research to address
coastal hazards in the contexts of their communities. Indigenous partners
in the RVCC Hub are not subjects, but co-creators of the convergence
science created through the Hub activities.

The RVCC-Hub goals are to 1) co-create convergence research with social and
earth sciences and Indigenous Knowledges to improve modeling and prediction
of coastal processes that support decision making by Indigenous communities
around mitigation and adaptation; 2) develop a successful, inclusive
framework for cross-cultural convergence research that can be adopted and
adapted by future research collaborations; 3) broaden participation amongst
Indigenous students and researchers, and train a new generation of diverse
convergence research scientists; 4) increase administrative and
technological infrastructure to support current and future research with
and by Indigenous scientists and communities. The place-based research is
focused on four regions: Alaska (Arctic), Louisiana (Gulf of Mexico),
Hawai‘i (Pacific Islands), and Puerto Rico (Caribbean Islands).

This position is designed to produce the next generation of scientists in
the field of coastal research and resilience and build ethical and
sustainable co-created research partnerships. A strong interdisciplinary
background in education and social sciences, Indigenous studies, and/or
evaluation is desired, as well as enthusiasm for such work. In particular,
this post-doctoral researcher will work on Indigenous curriculum
development and on-site program support. A good understanding of both
traditional ecological knowledges and Indigenous knowledges, and Indigenous
educational epistemologies is desired. Ideal candidates will have some
knowledge of Indigenous/American Indian educational histories, methods, and
methodologies.

The postdoctoral researcher should be equally comfortable working with a
range of identities that include Native and non-native scientists and
educators at major R1 research universities and scientific organizations,
as well as tribal colleges and universities, and TEK/IK -holders in rural
Indigenous communities; therefore, an appreciation and understanding of
both research settings - scientific labs and community environments – is
desirable. Preferred experience with developing curriculum, including
experiential and place-based learning, creative ways of teaching focused on
popular education,  evaluation and assessment and some logistical needs.

This position provides a unique opportunity for an early career postdoc
scientist to play a crucial role in the development of convergence science
research on one of the most pressing issues on the planet today, climate
change and its impacts on coastal Indigenous Peoples. Responsibilities will
include curriculum development supporting the Hub’s undergraduate/graduate
student internship programs, including Indigenous curriculum development
and experiential place-based learning opportunities, on-site support during
the summer programs such as writing coach and research mentoring,
pre-program communications and organizing, working closely with the
programs’ instructors and Haskell Foundation and Haskell Indian Nations
University staff, and engaging in evaluation and assessment of the programs.

This position is based at Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence,
Kansas.
Salary and Benefits: The starting salary for this position is $61,800
annually, plus health benefits. This position is not eligible for overtime
compensation.

affiliation, contact information) TO: aweber at haskellfoundation.org
