I am posting this on behalf of Dr Rivke Jaffe:

I am currently recruiting a fully-funded PhD for a project on digital urbanism in Kingston, Jamaica – a brief description of the project is pasted below. I would be very grateful if you could forward this to candidates who might be interested in doing a PhD on Kingston. And of course, please feel free to also share this with colleagues or on social media. The deadline for applications is September 1.

Project summary
This PhD position develops research in Kingston, Jamaica to understand how everyday urban life in postcolonial contexts is co-produced by digital technologies. The project extends the growing engagement within urban studies and geography with digital transformations – often referred to as digital urbanism. Much recent scholarly debate within these fields has focused on understanding how urban life and socio-spatial patterns are being reshaped by digital technologies, platforms and infrastructures. Where much of this research on cities and digital technologies has concentrated on Euro-American cities, this PhD position aims to diversify such geographies of theory, focusing on the urban Caribbean and bringing discussions on digital urbanism into conversation with – for instance – Caribbean thought, Black geographies, and/or postcolonial studies. We invite PhD proposals that draw creatively on such a range of theory to explore how digital technologies are changing everyday geographies, and urban patterns of difference and inequality, in Kingston. We are especially interested in proposals that employ a mixed-method approach combining ethnography with digital methods; we welcome applications from candidates with a master’s degree in human geography, anthropology, urban studies, science and technology studies or other relevant social sciences.
 
Thanks very much, all the best,
Rivke
