Contribute to project proposal writing and bilateral fundraising.Stay up to date with the most recent literature on spatial data science, climate and conflict, climate impacts, adaptation, sustainable agriculture, food systems modelling, and climate risk assessment.The team uses a wide array of approaches spanning the social and natural sciences, and the challenge is to integrate data science approaches with other approaches used by the team. Work collaboratively with the rest of the Climate Security team to develop a deep understanding of the relationships between climate and conflict.Contribute to the writing of high-quality technical notes, project reports, and if of interest also peer- reviewed publications.Automate and document analytical routines and contribute to capacity development of partners as needed.This will include agriculture and conflict risk analysis, and model-based climate impact and adaptation assessments in the areas (countries, regions) of interest to the Alliance and its partners. Use analytical skills to support the implementation of national and local-level analyses that feed into the Climate Security Observatory.

Develop methods that to support risk modelling and projection based on climatic and socio-economic data.These analyses will tap into large databases of climate, agriculture, migration, and conflict, and use innovative methods to explore this complex problem. Implement analyses that use data science to understand and map the relationships between climate, conflict, migration, and peace, with a geographically-explicit focus.With novel partnerships, the Alliance generates evidence and mainstream innovations to transform food systems and landscapes so that they sustain the planet, drive prosperity, and nourish people. The Alliance is part of CGIAR, a global research partnership for a food-secure future. Alliance solutions address the global crises of malnutrition, climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation. The Alliance of Bioversity International and the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) delivers research-based solutions that harness agricultural biodiversity and sustainably transform food systems to improve people’s lives.
