Climate change is increasingly becoming a crucial factor in the work we do on sustainable rural and urban livelihoods in sub-Saharan Africa. We’re looking for someone to help us develop a critical and grounded perspective on the distributional politics, political economy, and political ecology of climate change in Southern Africa.

We’re not after a ready-made climate change strategy, but rather an overview of emergent areas of consensus and debate to help PLAAS develop a strategic approach.
