\nPosition Summary:

\n\n

The SFS Center for Amazon Studies, located in Tarapoto, Peru seeks an enthusiastic, team-oriented individual to serve as part of a team of faculty and staff that delivers an interdisciplinary, hands-on learning experience to students spending a semester in Peru. On a contract basis, the Lecturer in Political Ecology will deliver the 50-hour Political Ecology of Peru course during the fall and spring semesters. Additionally, during fall and spring, they will co-teach the 50-hour Directed Research course with other faculty members, leading a faculty-developed directed research project with a small group of students. Consistent with SFS's academic model and program delivery needs, the position will be expected to assist with the coordination and teaching of the summer academic programming, including the 50-hour summer course Amazon Plant Biodiversity and Traditional Medicine.

\n\n

SFS programs are field-based and experiential. This position will engage students in a classroom and through extensive time spent in the field. We encourage faculty to integrate as much fieldwork and hands-on experience into their courses as possible.

\n\n

SFS programs do not follow a nine to five model. Faculty are also integral members of the Center’s communal living model, eating and working with the student cohort.

\n\n

Faculty are expected to be active members in the community-building process. Additional responsibilities outside of teaching may include participation in community engagement days, involvement in student life, organization of laboratory space, and general Center upkeep. We are especially interested in candidates with experience teaching to a diverse student body, and demonstrated commitment to diversity, inclusion, and cultural competence in a learning environment, conservation, and the Center’s host community.

\n\n

\nCenter Focus:

The SFS Center for Amazon Studies seeks to understand both the conflicts and synergies of conservation and development. Students will gain a sense of the richness of the Amazon region—biodiversity, social and cultural diversity, and ecosystem services—while exploring strategies for sustainable livelihoods in this highly productive and diverse region of South America.

\n\n

The interdisciplinary themes of socio-ecological resilience, environmental justice, and conservation will guide our inquiry. Through coursework, field exercises, and Directed Research, students will study people’s dependence on the environment, examine the threats to the environment and to social networks, and explore the tools and strategies for mitigating the threats and promoting well-being among rural communities. A strong component of the program will be examining the ecological patterns and processes that underpin the high diversity of the region.
\n
\nSFS Position on Diversity and Inclusion:

\n\n

SFS was founded with the belief that stewardship of our planet is the responsibility of people all around the world. Addressing complex global issues requires the active inclusion of stakeholders with varying perspectives and identities. We recognize that to successfully address threats to our natural world, we must look beyond social constructs designed to divide us. Just as we value biodiversity in all its forms, we value and engage with a multitude of diverse perspectives and people in the countries where we work and the students and staff we serve.
\n

\n\n

Duties and Responsibilities:

\n\n

SFS Lecturer positions are different than many other university teaching positions. Lecturers are integral members of the Center’s communal living model. The faculty team works closely and collaboratively to deliver a field-based interdisciplinary program, where programming days can be long and active. The program does not follow a nine to five model. In addition to providing high quality, inquiry-based teaching, faculty also participate fully in student life and in the implementation of the Center’s research plan. The publication of both student-assisted and independent research results is encouraged and supported.

\n\n

Course Descriptions

\n\n

Political Ecology of Peru: This course focuses on human interactions with and impacts on local natural systems, and vice versa. We consider these interactions through the interdisciplinary lens of political ecology, examining the political, economic, social, and historical factors of environmental issues and changes. The course provides conceptual and practical skills and tools to critically examine and assess the human-environment nexus by exploring distinct cultures and socioeconomic systems from the upper Andes to the Amazon basin. We also consider the theories and ethics of sustainable and unsustainable development, and the need to view these issues in ways that are inclusive and just.

\n\n

Directed Research: This course provides students with the opportunity to apply ecological, biological, and/or social-scientific methods to a field research project that addresses a local issue related to the environment. We will also investigate the ways that various methods and theories distinguish (or don’t) fact from interpretation, cause from correlation, and advocacy from objectivity. The directed research topics are derived from the SFS Center’s Research Plan as defined by the Center staff and local stakeholders. Through the Directed Research project, students will contribute to a growing body of scientific research that informs local conservation and resource management decisions. SFS program lecturers lead a small group of students in this research component of the program.

\n\n

Amazon Plant Biodiversity and Traditional Medicine: This summer course invites students to explore the rich and complex world of the Traditional Medicine (TM) as practiced by indigenous people in the Peruvian Amazon. Deeply rooted in ancestral knowledge, TM is not just a package of healing practices, but an expression of a holistic understanding of health that sees humans, non-human living forms, forests, and the spiritual realm as intimately interconnected. The exploration of traditional Amazonian medicine (TAM), in its concepts, practices, and worldview, will guide students to expand perspective on the meaning and mechanisms of health, illness, and healing. Drawing on field visits and conversations with practitioners and other experts in the field, students will learn how this medicine inextricably relates to the forest biodiversity providing the basis for remedies and healing concepts used to treat illnesses. At the same time, the course critically examines indigenous medicinal knowledge within the mainstream health and biomedical scientific frameworks.

\nResumen de Posición:
\nEl Centro de Estudios Amazónicos, ubicado en Tarapoto Perú, busca una persona entusiasta y que trabaje en equipo para enseñar en un programa interdisciplinario de estudios de campo dirigido a estudiantes de pregrado provenientes de universidades de los Estados Unidos. El profesor de Ecología Política impartirá el curso Ecología Política del Perú, de 50 horas de duración, durante dos semestres en 2027 (entre febrero y mayo y entre septiembre y diciembre). Además, durante esos mismos semestres, impartirá con otros miembros del cuerpo docente el curso Investigación Dirigida, de 50 horas de duración, dirigiendo un proyecto de investigación dirigida —desarrollado por el propio cuerpo docente— con un pequeño grupo de estudiantes. De acuerdo con el modelo académico de la SFS y las necesidades de impartición de los programas, se espera que el titular del puesto colabore en la coordinación y la docencia de la programación académica de un programa de 1 mes de duración entre los meses de junio y julio de 50 horas titulado Biodiversidad en Plantas Medicinales y Medicina Tradicional Amazónica.

\n\n

Los programas de la SFS se basan en el trabajo de campo y la experiencia práctica. Este puesto implicará la interacción con los estudiantes tanto en el aula como a través de una amplia dedicación al trabajo de campo. Animamos a los profesores a integrar en sus cursos el mayor número posible de actividades de campo y experiencias prácticas. Los programas de la SFS no siguen un horario de nueve a cinco.

\n\n

Los profesores de SFS también forman parte integral del modelo de convivencia del Centro, comiendo y trabajando junto al grupo de estudiantes. Entre las responsabilidades adicionales se incluye la participación en visitas a las comunidades locales, en la vida estudiantil, en la organización de los laboratorios y cuidado de equipos y mantenimiento general del Centro.

\n\n

Estamos especialmente interesados en personas con experiencia en la enseñanza a un alumnado diverso y con un compromiso demostrado con la diversidad, la inclusión y la competencia cultural en un entorno de aprendizaje y en la comunidad de Tarapoto.
\n

\n\n

Énfasis del Centro:
\nEl SFS Centro de Estudios Amazónicos tiene un enfoque temático sobre la complejidad de esta región andino-amazónica con su dramático gradiente de elevación y diversos elementos culturales.

\n\n

Este programa busca entender los conflictos y las sinergias envueltos en la complejidad de la conservación de especies y hábitats, así como de los procesos de desarrollo. Los estudiantes obtendrán un conocimiento detallado de la riqueza de la región amazónica (biodiversidad, diversidad social y cultural, y servicios ecosistémicos) mientras exploran estrategias para proponer alternativas de vida sostenible en esta región altamente productiva y diversa de América del Sur.

\n\n

A través de nuestros cursos y de los ejercicios de campo e investigación dirigida, los estudiantes analizarán la dependencia de la gente con el ambiente, examinarán amenazas ambientales y a las redes sociales, y explorarán herramientas y estrategias para mitigar estas amenazas y promover el bienestar entre las comunidades. Un fuerte componente de este programa es examinar los patrones y procesos ecológicos que sustentan la alta diversidad de la región.

\n\n

\nPosición Institucional sobre Diversidad e Inclusión:
\nSFS se fundó con la creencia de que el cuidado del planeta es responsabilidad de personas de todo el mundo. Abordar problemas globales complejos requiere la inclusión activa de las partes interesadas con diferentes perspectivas e identidades. Reconocemos que para abordar con éxito las amenazas a nuestro mundo natural, debemos mirar más allá de las construcciones sociales diseñadas para dividirnos. Así como valoramos la biodiversidad en todas sus formas, valoramos e interactuamos con una multitud de perspectivas y personas diversas en los países donde trabajamos y los estudiantes y el personal a los que servimos.

\n\n

\nDeberes y Responsabilidades:
\nLos puestos docentes en SFS son diferente a muchos otros puestos universidades. Los docentes son miembros integrales del modelo de vida comunitaria de cada centro. Trabajan estrechamente con los otros profesores para enseñar un programa interdisciplinario a través de la educación y la investigación de campo. Los días pueden ser largos y activos. Esta posición no se ajusta al modelo de trabajo de nueve a cinco. La posición exige estar a la altura de una enseñanza de alta calidad, moderna y de tipo experimental en temas ambientales críticos dentro de un currículo interdisciplinario, y participar plenamente en la implementación de la agenda de investigación del programa que aborde estos temas. La publicación de los resultados de investigación es crítica. Se espera que cada profesor proporcione una enseñanza de alta calidad basada en la investigación y que guíe a los estudiantes en sus proyectos de Investigación Dirigida definidos en la agenda de investigación del Centro de Estudios Amazónicos en Perú.

Descripción del Curso:
\nEcología Política de Perú: En este curso nos enfocamos en las interacciones humanas y los impactos en los sistemas naturales locales, y viceversa. El curso considera estas interacciones a través del lente interdisciplinario de la ecología política, examinando los factores políticos, económicos y sociales de los problemas y cambios ambientales. El curso proporciona un marco conceptual para comprender cómo las interacciones entre la naturaleza y la sociedad, como la agricultura, la extracción de recursos, el turismo y el desarrollo rural, dan forma tanto al paisaje natural como a las condiciones sociales y económicas en áreas rurales y urbanas. Debido a que la extracción de recursos, el desarrollo rural y la conservación son simultáneamente fenómenos sociales, culturales, económicos y ecológicos, el pensamiento crítico holístico es esencial para comprender estos sistemas y permitirnos proponer soluciones que tengan sentido. El curso proporciona las habilidades y herramientas conceptuales y prácticas para examinar y evaluar críticamente el nexo humano-ambiental en el campo. También consideramos las teorías y la ética del desarrollo sostenible e insostenible y la necesidad de ver estos temas de manera inclusiva y justa. Usaremos el enfoque de la ecología política para enmarcar líneas de investigación y definir preguntas científicas.

\n\n

Investigación Dirigida: El objetivo de este curso es proporcionar a los estudiantes la oportunidad de aplicar métodos ecológicos, biológicos y / o sociales y científicos a un proyecto de investigación de campo que aborde un tema local relacionado con el ambiente. También investigaremos las maneras en que varios métodos y teorías distinguen (o no) la evidencia de la interpretación, la causa de la correlación, y el activismo de la objetividad. Los temas de investigación dirigida se derivan de la Agenda de Investigación según lo definido por el personal del Centro en Perú y las comunidades y colaboradores locales. A través del proyecto de Investigación Dirigida, los estudiantes contribuyen a un creciente cuerpo de investigación científica que informa a los entes responsables de implementar decisiones locales de conservación y gestión de recursos. Los profesores del programa están a cargo de un pequeño grupo de estudiantes en este componente de investigación.

Biodiversidad en Plantas Medicinales y Medicina Tradicional Amazónica: Este curso de verano invita a los estudiantes a explorar el rico y complejo mundo de la medicina tradicional (MT), tal y como la practican los pueblos indígenas de la Amazonía peruana. Profundamente arraigada en el conocimiento ancestral, la MT no es solo un conjunto de prácticas curativas, sino una expresión de una concepción holística de la salud que considera que los seres humanos, las formas de vida no humanas, los bosques y el ámbito espiritual están íntimamente interconectados. La exploración de la medicina tradicional amazónica (MTA), en sus conceptos, prácticas y cosmovisión, guiará a los estudiantes a ampliar su perspectiva sobre el significado y los mecanismos de la salud, la enfermedad y la curación. A través de visitas de campo y conversaciones con profesionales y otros expertos en la materia, los estudiantes aprenderán cómo esta medicina está indisolublemente relacionada con la biodiversidad del bosque, que constituye la base de los remedios y los conceptos curativos utilizados para tratar las enfermedades. Al mismo tiempo, el curso examina de forma crítica los conocimientos medicinales indígenas dentro de los marcos científicos dominantes de la salud y la biomedicina.
