#PhD #JobPosting dear community 🌍 we are happy to announce a PhD position opening with our Research Group! If you are interested in exploring the nexus of climate mobilities and future making, this could be the opportunity for you! Requirements & how to apply here: jobs.univie.ac.at/job/Universi...

Our #SummerSchool |Exploring the intersections of climate change, migration, (im)mobilities, resilience & climate futures| has successfully come to an 🔚 We engaged in critical discussions, learnt from leading scientists in our field and connected with exceptional colleagues 💯

The past few weeks have been a very busy and enriching time for our team ⏩ Last week, we attended #ECMN25 where we exchanged ideas with colleagues from around the 🌍 about #TransdisciplinaryReseach on #Migration&Human(Im)mobility in the context of #Environmental&ClimateChange We made great memories!

We are happy to share that our colleagues, @songlin-wang.bsky.social (AI & climate mobilities) and Ailín Benítez Cortés (climate mobilities in Costa Rica), have successfully completed their FÖPs and have officially become PhD candidates 📝 We wish them all the best for the next few years of research!

#ReadingShare ➡️ "Migration in West Africa: a visual analysis of motivation, causes, and routes” by Schürmann et al.,(2022) offers an overview of #Push&Pull factors of #Migration in Ghana, Burkina Faso and Nigeria. Good example of #CreativeVisualisations of literature reviews doi.org/10.5751/ES-1....

Our #SummerSchool ☀️ #Call4Applications 📝 is open! ➡️Exploring the intersections of climate change, migration, (im)mobilities, resilience & climate futures ➡️14–18 July 2025 at the #UniversityOfVienna 🎓 ➡️No tuition fee - Apply by 31 May Application link: lnkd.in/dqxvdY5e More info: lnkd.in/dVEXWf8r

In this week's #ReadingShares ➡️ AI for social science and social science of AI: A survey. In this paper, the authors discuss how #ArtificialIntelligence, especially #LLM, could be helpful in generating and testing hypotheses in #SocialScience research. 📎📃 doi.org/10.1016/j.ip...

We are truly happy to share that Sarah Konieczka joined our research group as a #StudentAssistant! She is pursuing a #Master’sInGeography with a focus on #Migration&PopulationDynamics 🔎 Her research examines how social networks shape reintegration and how governance influences these dynamics.

#ReadingShare 📙A study from S. K. Kutor and colleagues highlights the importance of place attachment in shaping im/mobilities of coastal communities exposed to flooding in the Volta region, Ghana. Read more about it here ➡️ doi-org.uaccess.univie.ac.at/10.1007/s105...

Team members Rachael Diniega & Patrick Sakdapolrak reviewed 52 articles exploring how migrants’ #SocialRemittances like knowledge & social capital have an impact on agriculture & environment. How could this influence #ClimateAdaptation? Read all about it here: doi.org/10.1080/1756...

Congrats to our colleague @garciacoline.bsky.social ⭐for publishing her paper on community micro-mobilities and precarious immobility in Eastern Ethiopia, in coping response to prolonged drought and necessity to meet their basic needs #climatemobilities #mixedmethods ➡️ doi.org/10.1007/s101...

#ReadingShares As our colleague Magdalena prepares for fieldwork, she read Jill Blau´s article on Gender, Age and Land among the Nyangatom Pastoralists in Southern Ethiopia, which explores their communing practices. They see land as common - but the state renders their communal practices invisible.

Check out the recent Blogpost by our team member @danizenpg.bsky.social on decolonizing science and academic institutions as an everyday practice 🗣️ ➡️ www.gender-blog.de/beitrag/deko... based on her publication "When good intentions aren´t good enough" with the network @fgf-nrw.bsky.social

While mostly hidden, #groundwater is of central importance to surface ecosystems & human society. 📗 Christian Griebler, researcher & ECH-member, recently contributed to a new global model of groundwater temperature that predicts the effects of #ClimateChange on this subterranean #ecosystem. 🌍 ⤵

Last week we had the opportunity to celebrate our PhD candidates Medina Adulyarat and Magdalena Berger who presented their PhD projects on #AgingInPlace in Southern #Thailand and on #IndigenousGeographies and #ClimateAdaptation in #Ethiopia Looking forward to see how their research develops!
