Amnesty International Policy Coordinator - Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
Salary: £41,124 | Location: Central London
About the role
Amnesty International is a worldwide organization working to end human rights violations. As the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights Policy Coordinator, you will provide expert advice and help shape Amnesty International’s policy development, campaign strategies and research into violations of economic, social and cultural rights. You will provide expert advice on the right to adequate housing and support Amnesty International’s Demand Dignity Campaign.
About you
You must have in-depth knowledge of economic, social and cultural rights and expertise in human rights research and analysis. You will have professional experience of conducting research, drafting policy and strategy papers. You will be an excellent communicator with well developed project management and organizational skills, with experience of working to deadlines and prioritizing work under pressure.
Prior experience of working on the right to adequate housing is required. Experience of working on economic, social and cultural rights issues within the context of ‘slums’ and informal settlements is strongly desirable.
About us
Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. Already our network of over three million members and supporters is making a difference in 150 countries. 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.
