Geopolitics, Development, Security and Justice Research Group (GDSJ)
Description
Geopolitics, Development, Security and Justice Research Group works on a range of vitally important issues across political, development and social geography and has interdisciplinary reach in its connections to international relations, cyber security, development studies, anthropology, sociology, disaster studies, health and gerontology.
Members have also built interdisciplinary links across the university with the Information Security Group (ISG), Centre for Research into Sustainability (CRIS), the Centre for the GeoHumanities, the department of Health Studies, and The ICT4D Collective.
GDSJ’s 20 academic researchers and associate members, and 25+ PhD students are committed to research both in and across the Global North and Global South including the UK and Overseas Territories, the Arctic and Antarctica, Sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Australasia.
GDSJ organises a range of events including research theme and praxis workshops, ‘brown bag’ lunches and seminars. The group runs the Masters programmes: the MSc Global Futures: Justice, Development and Sustainability; the MSc Global Futures: Geopolitics and Security; the MSc Practising Sustainable Development, and the MRes in Geopolitics, Development, Security and Justice
The research of GDSJ members cross-cuts four themes. The group works through a range of methodological approaches with particular interests in participatory visual methods, transdisciplinary co-creation/-production methods, immersive and experimental methods, film and social media analysis:
- Governance, justice and the Environment
- Critical Geopolitics
- Mobility and displacement
- Digital geographies and cyber securities
