Research Assistants, Oxford

two new part-time Research Assistants to work with myself and Dr Nicole Stremlau at the Programme in Comparative Media Law & Policy (PCMLP) at the University of Oxford over the next 6 months. As a team, we do a lot of research about the new technologies and society, with a particular emphasis on social media, internet infrastructure, the development of policies and norms, and non-Western contexts, particularly in Africa.

The first post, the PCMLP Research Assistant
