One position is for one year, renewable up to three; the other is for two years, renewable up to two. Applicants are expected to be fluent both in English and in Italian. Successful candidates will do in-depth research via ethnography, shadowing and biographical methods among asylum seekers/refugees, and the relevant service providers and local authorities, throughout Italy.
