PhD position: ESRC White Rose DTP Studentship - Exploring the socio-ecological potentials of essential provisioning systems in OECD nations The Economic and Social Research Council is the UK's largest funding agency for research and postgraduate training relating to social and economic issues. The University of Leeds is part of the ESRC White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership forming a collaboration between the Universities of Leeds, Sheffield, York, Bradford, Sheffield Hallam, Hull and Manchester Metropolitan. These social science studentships are available to UK and international (including EU) applicants in seven named Thematic Interdisciplinary Training Pathways and can be held full-time or part-time for the following award types: +3.5 programme: funding for a 3.5-year PhD. Typically, applicants with a social science Masters degree and with 60 or more credits (or equivalent) of M-level social science research training are those most likely to benefit from this option. +3.75 programme: funding for an integrated PGCert/PhD. Typically, applicants with a social science Masters degree, but who have not undertaken core research training are those most likely to benefit for this option. 1+3.5 programme: funding for a 1 year Masters programme, followed by the 3.5 year PhD. Typically, applicants without a social science Masters degree are those most likely to benefit from this option. An ESRC White Rose DTP Collaborative Studentship is available in the School of Earth and Environment, with the project title'Exploring the socio-ecological potentials of essential provisioning systems in OECD nations'. ESRC Pathway: Space, Place, Environment and Liveability (SPEL) Closing Date for Applications: 17:00 (UK Time) 14 March 2025 This project tackles the critical challenge of aligning human need satisfaction with ecological sustainability. Research highlights the importance of collective provisioning systems (CPS) in essential sectors -such as education, housing, healthcare, transportation and utilities -in meeting societal needs (eg health and social participation). CPS, organised through public, community, or cooperative arrangements, prioritise social equity and universal access over individual payment ability. Studies link CPS to improved well-being and reduced environmental impacts, eg through shared infrastructure and economies of scale. However, empirical evidence on CPS's ecological effects, as well as on successful implementation conditions, remains limited. Research Question 1: How does the mitigation potential of CPS in emissions and resource use in OECD nations compare to individualised, privatised, or market-driven systems across essential sectors? Research Question 2: Which design and governance principles enable CPS to minimise resource use and emissions while ensuring inclusive, adequate need satisfaction, and how can these principles inform policy and practice? OECD countries, responsible for 36% of global consumption-based emissions in 2022 (57% in 1990) must drive transformative change. This project contributes by focusing on: CPS's mitigation potential compared to individualised/market-driven systems in OECD nations across essential sectors. Design and governance principles for socio-ecologically ambitious CPS and strategies to integrate these principles in policy formation. A systematic narrative review will be followed by a Quantitative Analysis (including Input-Output Analysis and multivariate regression) and a Qualitative Analysis (in-depth case studies) leading to the development of policy recommendations. A 3-month Research in Practice placement will be provided at the New Economics Foundation (NEF), providing an immersive experience of think tank working and skills in strategic policy communication. This project integrates ecological economics, social policy, urban and regional planning, and governance studies. Partnering with NEF ensures effective bridging of research, community innovation and policymaking, fostering transformative impacts. Duration of the Award: 1+3.5 Studentships: Full-time (4.5 years) or part-time (7 years 10 months); +3.5 Studentships: Full-time (3.5 years) or part-time (5 years 10 months); +3.75 Studentships: Full-time (3 years 9 months) or part-time (6 years 3 months).
