5-Year iPhD Studentship, full fee waiver and stipend - Responsible Consumption iPhD

This 5-year studentship offers a full fee waiver for an iPhD, plus a stipend in-line with UKRI recommendations. Whilst consumption plays a crucial role in people’s lives, helping them to access life-sustaining goods and services, promoting growth and human flourishing and providing ways to participate in social and political arenas, it is also implicated in a number of ‘Grand Challenges’. In response to these challenges, this project seeks to promote much needed research into the area of Responsible Consumption.
