Research Associate in Anthropology

This is a 1-year researcher role on a project funded by the National Institute of Health Research’s School for Public Health Research. We are seeking either a Grade 7 or Grade 6 to fill this role. The project, COAST (Evaluating COastal rural communities’ Active and Sustainable Travel), uses an ethnographic approach to explore responses to active and sustainable travel interventions in rural and coastal County Durham and Cornwall. Methods used are likely to include geonarratives, go-along interviews and photo-elicitation interviews. The postholder will be based at Durham and will conduct intensive fieldwork in the east of County Durham, working closely with a researcher at the University of Exeter who will conduct fieldwork in Cornwall. Your line manager will be Principal Investigator Professor Tessa Pollard and you will also work closely with Professor Cassie Phoenix from the Department of Sports and Exercise Sciences, and with the Co-Principal Investigator Professor Conny Guell at the University of Exeter.
