Individuals at Risk Campaigner at Amnesty International 65 views0 applications


Use your experience as a human rights campaign strategist to respond to some of our most critical campaigning issues in the MENA region. Working within the Individuals at Risk Team, you’ll react quickly to emerging priorities assessing changing situations quickly, capitalising on your political judgement and inspiring worldwide action within days.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

The urgent human rights issues that we need to bring to the world’s attention are hugely varied. You will work to develop and support effective action on behalf of individuals and communities through developing campaign plans and techniques. You will prepare relevant materials and deliver appropriate communications and advice to multiple stakeholders in global locations. Spotting opportunities for action, you’ll decide on effective strategies and tactics, coordinating the delivery of Amnesty International’s campaigns, increasing the effectiveness across the wider movement.

ABOUT YOU:

You will be confident in developing and managing an effective portfolio of casework for campaigning and deliver these in an ethical way. You will be highly motivational and have experience in mobilizing individuals, communities and human rights defenders at imminent risk. Your confidence and expertise to identify relevant information quickly, understand what’s key and pinpoint the most effective means of communication will provide authoritative advice and support to staff. Flexible enough to adapt your approach as priorities change, you will also bring us a real flair for innovation and will act as a reliable post within the organisation. Fluency in written and spoken Arabic, French and English is a must.

ABOUT US:

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who campaign for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all. We reach almost every country in the world and have:

  • more than 2 million members and supporters who drive forward our fight for rights
  • more than 5 million activists who strengthen our calls for justice

Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, fairness, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. And whether we’re applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.

At Amnesty International, we are passionate about what we do and we are proud of our achievements as a movement. To compensate our employees for the wonderful work they do, we reward them through a combination of an attractive and sector competitive salary and benefits package, high levels of engagement and involvement, and a commitment to employee development.

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who take injustice personally. We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all.

We are funded by members and people like you. We are independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. No government is beyond scrutiny. No situation is beyond hope.

Few would have predicted when we started that torturers would become international outlaws. That most countries would abolish the death penalty. And seemingly untouchable dictators would be made to answer for their crimes.

What does Amnesty do?

We investigate and expose the facts, whenever and wherever abuses happen.

We lobby governments, and other powerful groups such as companies. Making sure they keep their promises and respect international law.

By telling the powerful stories of the people we work with, we mobilize millions of supporters around the world to campaign for change and to stand in defence of activists on the frontline.

We support people to claim their rights through education and training.

Where it all began

In 1961, British lawyer Peter Benenson was outraged when two Portuguese students were jailed just for raising a toast to freedom. He wrote an article in The Observer newspaper and launched a campaign that provoked an incredible response. Reprinted in newspapers across the world, his call to action sparked the idea that people everywhere can unite in solidarity for justice and freedom.

This inspiring moment didn’t just give birth to an extraordinary movement, it was the start of extraordinary social change.

After more than 50 years of groundbreaking achievements, Amnesty has been through a major transformation, adapting to dramatic changes in the world.

We have shifted from a large London base, to open regional offices in cities in Africa, Asia-Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. These offices are major hubs for our investigations, campaigns and communications. The new regional offices strengthen the work of Sections who already work at the national level in more than 70 countries. We can now respond quickly to events wherever they happen, and be a powerful force for freedom and justice.

To stay one step ahead, we are also developing tools using the latest technologies. Such as a mobile phone app that acts as a personal ‘panic button’ for activists at daily risk of being arrested or detained.
