About us:

University of Canberra's vision is that "Together we work to empower, connect and share knowledge with our people, cultures and places."

The University of Canberra has been ranked in the top 7 universities in the world for reducing inequalities (THE Impact Rankings 2024).

About the role:

Join the world-leading Centre for Deliberative Democracy at the University of Canberra and develop your own independent research program in one of the most significant areas of contemporary democratic scholarship.

In this role, you will undertake high-quality research aligned with the Centre's research agenda while contributing to its national and international reputation of excellence. You will publish in leading journals and academic presses, develop competitive research funding applications, engage with scholars across Australia and internationally, and help shape the Centre's vibrant program of research seminars, workshops, conferences and postgraduate learning.

This is a unique opportunity for an emerging researcher to pursue original research in deliberative democracy, participatory democracy, democratic innovations, or a closely related field. Unlike project-based research appointments, this Fellowship allows you to build your own research profile, establish international collaborations, and contribute to advancing the field through high-impact scholarship.
