This 2.5-year postdoc project, funded by an NWO Open Competition Large grant, will be conducted in the Developmental Psychology Program at Utrecht University.
The PhD study is part of a larger project funded by an ERC Advanced Grant: “Aquiverse: a collaborative study of groundwater care to re-think, improve and support its governance”. The project aspires to learn from what irrigators and other water users do to protect and share the aquifers that they depend on for their livelihoods. Acknowledging how the over-exploitation of aquifers is linked to neo-liberal processes of agricultural intensification, the project is interested in exploring whether such caring practices can form part of a politics of transformation.

Democracies are commonly seen as able to channel contestation through institutionalized processes and nonviolent action. Yet, democratic polities frequently experience a broad range of political violence — from riots and organized electoral intimidation to extremist mobilization and criminal violence — and violence can test and, at times, erode democratic norms and institutions. Moreover, democracies themselves may respond to perceived threats with measures (e.g., militarized policing, emergency legislation, selective repression) that threaten to undermine core features of liberal democracy su

The network will train fifteen fellows to examine this learning process from different angles. They will look at how authorities detect early signals, design and test interventions, evaluate what works, and share findings across organisations.
