[Prx-995] Postdoctoral Position In Economics - Womempower

Postdoctoral position in Economics with a focus on quantitative methods and a background in gender, public, and cultural economics, particularly focusing on Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and Violence against Women.

Combining population-based data from a variety of sources (hospital records; police records; face-to-face survey interviews) with quantitative methods drawn from economics, WomEmpower proposes to estimate the causal impact of (1) motherhood, (2) gender norms, and (3) labor market policies targeted to low-income workers on IPV. The project will identify the mechanisms driving IPV in the EU and the population subgroups most at risk of victimization.

WomEmpower will study how structural inequalities (poverty, immigrant status, race, lack of education/services) in the EU shape the risk of victimization and how women's intersectionalities (racism, adultism, ableism, heteronormativity) impact their risk of victimization.

The postdoc will be responsible for data cleaning, analysis, programming, and co-authoring papers on the causes of IPV in the EU and the US.

The successful applicants will join a team producing cutting-edge research on applied economics, domestic violence, and crime, regularly publishing their work in top international journals. They will work directly with Núria Rodríguez-Planas.

Gross salary per year: 43.000 €.
