DeltAdapt Project
The DeltAdapt project is a BMBF (German Federal Ministry of Education and Research) funded project aiming to explore the socio-ecological sustainability of coastal agro-ecosystems in the Mekong and Red River Delta, Vietnam and their adaptation options to increasing salinity intrusion. The main focus is on management shifts between paddy rice, rice-shrimp farming, and saline aquaculture and the consequences of these on-farm adaptation processes to salinity intrusion on soil quality, biodiversity, climate, and livelihoods. UNU-EHS leads work package 4 on “Pollution and food safety”. The work is based on the assumptions that salinity intrusion as well as directly or indirectly salinity-driven changes in land use and irrigation patterns will influence the application (amount, timing, and spatial distribution) of pesticides and antibiotics in the coastal areas. The different levels of salinity intrusion as well as the related land use may alter the soil properties, and consequently also modify the fate and bioaccumulation processes of these chemicals in the environment.
Responsibilities:
Under the authority of the Director of UNU-EHS and the Head of the Environmental Vulnerability and Ecosystem Services (EVES) section, the successful candidate will be entrusted with the following tasks:
· Field research (e.g. questionnaires, interviews) to understand typical application rates of pesticides and antibiotics used in agriculture and aquaculture in coastal areas of both deltas and to determine recent changes in application rates in the context of increasing salinity intrusion and salinity driven land use changes.
· Field research (sampling, laboratory analysis) to determine typical current pesticide and antibiotic concentrations in coastal soils and sediments of both deltas.
· Research (Laboratory studies, analysis) to determine the effect of different salinity levels on the fate (dissipation, bioaccumulation) of selected, relevant pesticides and antibiotics.
· Research about the effect of land use change on the release and bioaccumulation of these pollutants.
Required qualifications and Experience
· Minimum Masters degree or equivalent in Environmental Sciences, Chemistry, Agricultural Sciences or related fields;
· Experience in analytical chemistry;
· Experience in empirical work linked to social sciences (questionnaire, household interviews) is an asset;
· Excellent command of oral and written English;
· Knowledge of Vietnamese is an asset;
· Willingness and ability to conduct extensive field research in Vietnam, sometimes in remote areas;
· Good team player with strong interpersonal skills demonstrated by the ability to work in a multi-cultural environment.
Stipend:
Stipend of 1,450 EUR per month
Duration of Contract:
The successful candidate will be based at UNU-EHS in Bonn on a full-time basis under the Doctoral Fellowship Award category for a period of 36 months with an initial settlement of 12 months. There will be an evaluation step (performance review of the state and of progress of the PhD studies) after 12 and 24 months. The extension of the contract after 12 and 24 months is based on the evaluation outcome. Extensive stays in Vietnam will also be required.
This is a locally recruited post; no relocation expenses or allowances apply. The successful candidate will be employed under a local contract and will not hold international civil servant status nor be a “staff member” as defined in the United Nations Staff Rules and Regulations.
Applications from suitably qualified women candidates are particularly encouraged.

ACTED est une organisation non gouvernementale créée en 1993 (association loi 1901). Indépendante, privée et à but non lucratif, ACTED œuvre dans le respect d’une impartialité politique et religieuse stricte, et fonctionne selon les principes de non-discrimination et de transparence.
La vocation d’ACTED est de soutenir les populations vulnérables de par le monde et de les accompagner dans la construction d’un futur meilleur.

En d’autres termes, afin de garantir que les interventions effectuées en temps de crise soient utiles et durables, seul un soutien sur le long terme - en demeurant sur place après l’urgence et en impliquant les communautés - permet de rompre le cycle de pauvreté et d’accompagner les populations sur la voie du développement.
Le siège d’ACTED s’est installé à Paris en 2000 dans le but de coordonner les interventions de l’organisation à l’échelle mondiale.
Aujourd’hui le siège est composé de 40 personnes dans les départements RH, Finance, Reporting, Audit, HUB logistique et Communication. Ces départements apportent leur soutien aux 30 Directions Pays ainsi qu’aux 3 Directions régionales, comprenant environ 300 expatriés et plus de 4000 salariés nationaux.
Le siège fait aussi office de point de convergence pour la Direction d’ACTED, à savoir la Déléguée Générale, le Directeur du Développement et les quinze membres du Conseil d’Administration.
