About this position

Are you interested in how law and policy can make agri-food systems fairer and more socially sustainable? Do you enjoy combining legal analysis with empirical research and engaging with farmers and other food-system actors? Join the Law Group at Wageningen University & Research as a PhD candidate in the Horizon Europe project SOCIAL AGRI. Social issues such as working conditions, farmer wellbeing, migrant worker integration and gender equality remain insufficiently captured in EU agricultural data and policy frameworks. This makes social costs and inequalities difficult to assess and address.
