Post-graduated Research position - Assegno di ricerca.

A call for a 12-month, full time post-graduated Research position (Assegno di ricerca) is open at the University of Trento (deadline for the application 10 May 2023). The successful candidate will join the project StandByMe 2.0 funded by the EU (within the call CERV-2021-DAPHNE) and work under the supervision of Maria Paola Paladino (Department of Psychology and Cognitive Science, University of Trento).

This project aims at countering online and offline violence against women and girls with a focus on the role of gender stereotypes and conceptions of masculinity via youth actions in Hungary, Italy, Poland and Slovenia. In the first year of the project an online course, a teachers’ training and a digital platform to combat gender-based violence have been developed by project’ partners, i.e. Amnesty International, FBK and the University of Trento. The successful candidate will be involved in the validation of the efficacy of the digital platform in raising awareness and combat gender-based violence, and its roots (gender stereotypes and role). 

To apply it is not required to have a PhD, but some experience in research related to the topics is expected.
