Regional Campaigner - Colombia - Lima Office

Campaigner (Colombia) - Americas Regional Office (Lima - Peru)

Amnesty International's Regional Office in Peru (covering work in the Andean Region and the Southern Cone) is looking for an experienced Campaigner for our Colombia program to act as catalyst to mobilize our Amnesty International's worldwide membership in support to human rights campaigns in the region, particularly to promote the rights of victims of armed conflict, to end violence against women, to ensure Economic, Social and Cultural rights, to promote respect for Indigenous People's rights, and to address the increasing levels of violence against human rights defenders, among other important issues.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a research-based campaigning organization, building strong strategies for action to engage and mobilize our members, activists and partners is fundamental to achieve our goals and long-lasting strategies for change. Whether we are addressing restrictions on freedom of expression, or violations of the rights of Indigenous people, or denouncing sexual violence against women, our campaigns make a difference. You will contribute to deliver powerful global, regional and national campaigns that inspire people to act and protect human rights defenders.

Our Colombia Campaigner will work in close collaboration with researchers and other programme teams, as well as with sections, to launch campaigns for action by developing innovative campaign tactics and techniques, capitalising on communications and social media channels, and identifying and fostering opportunities for partnership and collaboration with other social and human rights movements and communities addressing issues affecting people in Colombia.
