Please, could you forward to your networks, and to current and completed MA students with a relevant background in social science?
Applications invited for a fully funded PhD CASE Studentship in the Sociology Department at Lancaster University working with Dr Stanley Blue, Professor Elizabeth Shove, and the British Red Cross. This is a +3 studentship for Home/EU students who already have a relevant Masters' degree, or will have one by the starting date.
Project title: Situating Everyday First Aid: Social Practices and Settings of Incidents and Help.
Deadline: 9th February 2018.
Starting date: October 2018.
This is a call for applications for a three year, fully funded, ESRC North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership<https://nwssdtp.ac.uk/> (NWSSDTP) CASE PhD studentship working in collaboration with the British Red Cross. The project investigates the social organisation of first aid. The research will focus on the social and institutional settings within which first aid 'incidents' occur and how these settings influence the kinds of 'responses' and forms of help that follow. The aim is to provide a better understanding of accidents, risks, and harms by positioning first aid incidents not as random events but as embedded in the spatial and temporal ordering of social practices and social life. Further understanding of the social organisation of help will put the Red Cross and others in a better position to promote first aid skills, to help save more lives, and reduce harm.
