I'd like to make list members and their contacts aware of an AHRC funded PhD opportunity on the topic of 'Data-driven climate change risk assessment for heritage in England'. This will be supervised by Historic England and UCL. Applications close on 15 May 2022.
Full details are available from the UCL website:
https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/heritage/news/2022/apr/ahrc-phd-studentship-data-driven-climate-change-risk-assessment-heritage-england
the aims of the studentship are:
"A more accurate understanding of climate change related risks for heritage needs to incorporate diverse aspects of risk, such as vulnerability and exposure. Due to the diversity and scale of England’s rich heritage (there are about 360,000 heritage assets on the National Heritage list for England and many times that on local Historic Environment Records and existent as unlisted heritage), this requires a data-driven approach. Working closely with Historic England, you will undertake a statistical climate change risk assessment that incorporates hazard, vulnerability, and exposure for England’s heritage. Working in the context of cultural heritage is, by definition, value-driven and therefore challenging, requiring both technical expertise and an awareness of the broader social and cultural context of the work. You will also undertake a 3- to 6-month placement or training course to complement the skills and expertise that will be developed through the core research."
