Announcing new call: 1-2 Partner Postdoc Fellows in Environmental impacts of digitalization based on LCA

This call is for research on the environmental impacts of Information and communication technology (ICT) based on life-cycle assessment (LCA) and life cycle thinking with the aim to increase knowledge of direct and indirect impacts of digitalization.

The position is part-financed by Ericsson, and they can provide opportunities for access to data that can normally be difficult to access. The position includes independent research and collaboration with researchers and actors with different roles in digitalization, primarily from academia and companies.

The KTH funding comes from Digital Futures and KTH Climate Action Centre and the positions will be placed at the Department of Sustainable Development, Environmental Science and Engineering (SEED) at KTH. Cooperation with other parts of Digital Futures is expected.
