Project Co-ordinator Nairobi
With one of the best GDPs in the region and a progressive political system, Kenyans have a lot to be proud of. But in the heart of the nation’s capital, human rights are being violated.

Women and girls in Nairobi’s slums are living with the constant, abhorrent threat of rape. We aim to stop it. And so will you.

Leading the delivery of our Safe Slums for Women and Girls campaign project, campaigning and building capacity of rights holders to challenge violations, you’ll work closely with our partners on capacity building, mobilizing and ultimately empowering women in the community.

You’ll draw on your knowledge of human rights and gender equality, and put your experience of developing and coordinating strategy to good use.

You’ll make the most of your fluent English and Kiswahili and strong NGO background too. And, most importantly, you’ll help end gender discrimination in Kenya.

Demand Dignity Campaigner
Various locations across Africa, or London

Salary: TBC for Africa Posting, £32,256 for London Posting
Fixed-Term Contract Ending 31st March 2012

Demand Dignity is Amnesty International's flagship campaign, calling for an end to the human rights violations that drive and deepen poverty.

Join us and help deliver a major part of the campaign in Africa, fighting for the rights of people living in slums from Lagos to Nairobi.

Every year hundreds of thousands of people living in slums across Africa are forcibly, often violently, evicted from their homes.

Their rights are violated, they lose not only their homes and possessions, but also access to work and basic services, driving them deeper into poverty. You'll deliver campaign plans focused on ending these forced evictions.

To do that well, you'll need to coordinate with our offices across the world, bringing them together to raise awareness and integrate campaigning and policy. You'll provide support to teams in eight African countries, including advocacy, campaigning, developing best practice standards and work closely with staff to increase our impact.

An experienced campaigner, you'll have knowledge of the human rights issues surrounding slums and development in Africa and be confident implementing campaigns on national, regional and international levels.

So you'll have a strong understanding of campaign methodologies and development tools and have the organisational skill to pull together geographically remote colleagues and partners. Ideally, you'll have a working knowledge of Kiswahili or French.

But it's more important that you have top-notch communication skills in English and are able to build strong relationships both throughout Amnesty and externally.
