Search for Director, Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, and Associate/Full Professor, Keough School of Global Affairs, University of Notre Dame SOUTH BEND, INDIANA The University of Notre Dame (Notre Dame) and the Keough School of Global Affairs are accepting applications for a full-time, tenured position at the associate or full professor level. The ideal candidate will be an accomplished scholar, strategic leader, and culture builder that will also serve as the next Director of the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies. The Director will lead a globally recognized institute composed of a committed group of research scholars and practitioners in charting a compelling vision for the future. This is an important leadership role that is central to the mission of a premier global Catholic research university. The Director role offers an opportunity to make an outsized impact in realizing Kroc’s mission to study the causes of violent conflict and strategies for a just and sustainable peace. The ideal candidate will be a distinguished scholar whose research and policy engagement focus on issues relevant to the study or implementation of peace. Candidates should have a Ph.D. and rigorous training in law, history, peace studies, political science, sociology, theology, or a related field, with a record of significant intellectual contributions and academic achievement to receive tenure at Notre Dame. This is a full-time, tenured appointment, with administrative responsibilities and teaching duties at the undergraduate and graduate levels, ideally to begin in August 2027. The Kroc Institute was founded in 1986 through the shared vision of long-time Notre Dame President Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., and philanthropist Joan B. Kroc. Inspired by a commitment to peace, human rights, and the reduction of conflict, the Institute has grown into one of the world’s leading centers for peace studies research, education, and practice. The Institute brings together scholars from multiple fields to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Research areas span peace processes, international mediation, conflict resolution, transitional justice, environmental justice, nuclear disarmament, human rights, migration, religion and peacebuilding, genocide prevention, and emerging issues such as technology and polarization. In 2014, the Institute became a founding unit of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs. A defining characteristic of the Kroc Institute is its commitment to bridging scholarship and practice; producing interdisciplinary research that not only advances knowledge but also informs policy and action. Faculty and programs engage directly with governments, international organizations, nongovernmental organizations, and local communities around the world. Initiatives such as the Peace Accords Matrix and the Catholic Peacebuilding Network are significant and renowned initiatives to translate scholarship into practical impact. Its academic portfolio includes programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Supported by a substantial endowment, and a global alumni network of more than 2,000, the Institute occupies a uniquely influential position within the field. The Director of the Kroc Institute reports directly to the Dean of the Keough School of Global Affairs. The next Director will be charged with developing an innovative intellectual agenda; continue to integrate with the Keough School; enhance Kroc’s leadership in peace studies; and foster a collaborative and inclusive community. The Director will have an opportunity to build upon the Institute’s remarkable 40 year legacy while shaping a new future as the leading center for peace studies grounded in Notre Dame’s identity as a Catholic research institution and its enduring commitment to human dignity, justice, and the common good.

Position Summary The President leads NCNK in partnership with the Board of Directors, the members, and a small staff. The role combines strategy, fundraising, programming, and external representation. The next leader will guide NCNK through significant transition—building a diversified financial base, evolving programming for a changing geopolitical landscape and diversified membership, and solidifying the organization’s independent footing. This is a hands-on role. The President’s name is on many of NCNK’s governing and financial documents, and the role requires staying close to the daily mechanics of the organization, not just setting strategic direction. Candidates should enter the process with a clear-eyed understanding of this reality. Responsibilities Strategic leadership and external representation. Set NCNK’s direction in partnership with the Board. Serve as the organization’s leading public voice across government, foundations, media, and the academic, humanitarian, and policy communities engaged with the Korean Peninsula. Position NCNK as a trusted platform for dialogue and a thought leader on future diplomatic and people-to-people engagement and peacebuilding. Fundraising and financial sustainability. Lead the development of a new financial model less reliant on traditional grants. Cultivate individual and institutional donors, as well as foundations and other possible sources of funding or revenue. Partner with the Board to launch a Development Committee and to build a culture of member-giving. (NCNK does not accept funds from any government or foreign-based entities.) Programming and membership. Convene NCNK’s signature gatherings—the East and West Coast annual member meetings, DC policy salons, in-person and remote seminars, and ongoing consultations across the engagement communities inside and outside the United States. Evolve programming in response to changes in U.S.-DPRK relations. Grow and engage NCNK’s membership as the organization’s principal asset and help cultivate the next generation of experts and practitioners working on North Korea and East Asia. Operations and team. Supervise and manage a small staff as well as bearing responsibility for NCNK’s overall financial and compliance operations. Allocation of time is currently split between NCNK programming and external representation (50%) and fundraising and administration (50%). Qualifications -- Leadership experience in a sector relevant to NCNK’s mission—nonprofit, policy, government, business, academic, humanitarian, philanthropy, journalism. -- Credibility on East Asia-related issues. Familiarity with the Korean Peninsula and U.S.-DPRK relations is an advantage, not a prerequisite. -- A record of building—organizations, programs, funding bases, or new directions—often under resource constraints. -- Substantive fundraising experience, including approaches beyond traditional foundation grants. • Strong communication skills with diverse audiences: members, policymakers, funders, scholars, practitioners, civil society organizations, and media. -- Sound judgment in politically sensitive environments. -- Comfort in a small, entrepreneurial organization. -- Willingness to be hands-on with financial, administrative, and compliance matters, not simply oversee them. -- Realistic expectations about the day-to-day, at times unglamorous, demands of leading a small, independent nonprofit.

The ROBS – Road Behavior and Safety program aims to uncover the effective, often implicit rules that govern road traffic in Morocco – and also in Europe –, analyzing how they stem from historical interactions between road users rather than formal traffic regulations. The ROBS research’s framework posits that road behavior cannot be solely explained by adherence to or knowledge of the official highway code. Instead, in high-accident environments, driving practices are shaped by underlying, informal interaction systems that exert significant pressure on all drivers, including newcomers. The investigation relies on questionnaire and experimentsdesigned to map these implicit rules—specifically focusing on intersections, roundabouts, and pedestrian crossings—in Morocco and Europe, and to measure their divergence from formal laws.
