Sydney, Australia University of New South Wales Full time

**Job no**: 515209

**Work type**: casual

**Location**: Sydney, NSW

**Categories**: Research Administration support

The Scope 3 and Human Rights Hub has been established within the Australian Human Rights Institute at UNSW to:

- increase knowledge about the contribution of Australia’s total emissions (including from its exported coal and gas) to specific, climate-related harms threatening identifiable human communities in Australia;
- harness that knowledge to raise awareness about the need for, and to develop, a national pathway for a just, human rights-based, and Paris-aligned phase-out of Australia’s coal and gas export sectors; and
- provide a human rights-based model framework for other fossil fuel exporting advanced economies.

**Application Form**
- We are seeking a casual Research Assistant (RA) to assist with specific aspects of our work.

The RA will be with the Hub through Stage 1 (Building Knowledge) and the first part of Stage 2 (Building the Base), with the possibility of continuing beyond that. This is essentially from mid-March to mid-September 2023. The RA’s role is to help the Hub’s Coordinator to:

- develop and manage the empirical research project with Climate Analytics (CA).
- Integrate the research findings into a draft report.
- Assist with the preparation of a draft human rights-based national phase-out plan for Australia.

The RA needs to be unafraid of cross-disciplinary work, have a background in human rights law or practice, be competent in legal research and have very good writing skills. A degree of knowledge of the climate space would be beneficial but is not essential. The Hub is flexible as to the number of days allocated for this project, which may be extended as required.
