**apologies for crossposting** Dear colleagues The Grassroots Radio team, led by the Madeira Interactive Technologies Institute (Madeira-ITI), seeks a researcher with an interest in the participatory design of the interfaces for community governance of networked radio stations, with a particular focus on commons-based forms of governance and cooperative management. The hired person will be collaborating with the international partners of the consortium on the identified tasks, and will have the opportunity to produce original collaborative research and joint publications with other members of the network, as well as being afforded funding for travel to partner sites, and for attending conferences and workshops. While the emphasis of this work is on the participatory design of the governance of radio stations, a candidate with strong interdisciplinary skills would be able to learn many of the domain-specific approaches on the job. Grassroots Radio is creating a game-changing network of inclusive digital platforms for citizen engagement, community deliberation, and the free flow of information within, into, and out of geographic communities by piloting solutions for connected, inexpensive, community owned and operated radio across Europe. Building on the success of the existing RootIO platform ( www.rootio.org) – with its proven commons-oriented technology and catalytic capacities for promoting collective awareness and action, participatory innovation, community resilience, and media pluralism – we are deploying and testing a network of low-power community radio stations in Ireland, Portugal, and Romania as part of the Horizon 2020 Grassroot Wavelengths project (nº 780890), funded by the European Commission. The initial contract will be for a period of 12 months, for potential renewable up to a maximum of 24 months.
