We are looking for a civil society advocacy lead
liber-net is seeking a full-time advocacy lead to lead our civil society advocacy program, primarily focused on the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe.
The position will run a series of campaigns focused on NGOs, “fact-checkers” and research institutions, and philanthropies that promote censorship under the guise of “countering disinformation”. Despite the recent closing of the Stanford Internet Observatory, the sector has largely resisted accountability, reform, and calls to respect the values of free speech and expression. Through targeted advocacy we aim to bring accountability to the sector and restore norms of free speech and civil liberties.
This project is ideal for someone with proven experience in advocacy and campaigning, excellent strategic and project management abilities, a broad skill set to spearhead the community engagement and creative media production responsibilities of this role, and a commitment to protecting and promoting digital free expression.
A background in the progressive digital rights field is an advantage.
Responsibilities
Plan and design campaigns including identifying key objectives, partners, and allies
Work with dissident digital rights advocates to develop and launch a new Internet freedom charter, holding signatories of similar previous charters to account
Conduct research into the role of civil society organizations in censorship, and write and publish relevant findings
Manage the creation of creative media to draw attention to civil society censorship initiatives including video, audio, pamphlets, and social media
Identify and develop a network of decision-makers and grassroots supporters and produce regular communications updating supporters and drive their participation in campaigns
Coordinate and host small events and meetings to advance the campaigns
Track the impact of the campaigns and develop evaluation and feedback mechanisms to tune and improve strategies
The position is remote, though candidates should be based in the U.S., the E.U., or the U.K.
