Organisation Overview
Rights and Security International (RSI), formerly Rights Watch (UK), is a human rights organisation that upholds rights in the national security context. For over three decades, initially in Northern Ireland and now globally, RSI has successfully advocated for a rights-based approach to security and held Governments to account for unlawful actions. We envision a world that recognises that our individual freedoms are essential to our collective safety and well-being.
We have received wide acclaim for our work, including the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) Human Rights Prize for ‘outstanding civil society action in the defence of human rights in Europe’.
RSI’s mission is increasingly urgent given the stark rise globally in ‘security’ measures that silence human rights defenders, racial justice advocates and environmental activists; disproportionately impact vulnerable and marginalised communities; and hinder peaceful protests. At the same time, the obstacles that victims of security-related abuses face in accessing justice have significantly increased as governments hide behind excessive secrecy.
This year, RSI will establish the Rise Coalition, an informal but active, coordinated and effective international network of civil society organisations that promote human rights and work to end harmful ‘security’ laws and practices.
The Rise Coalition will help human rights groups worldwide push back against excessive security laws and norms, while articulating rights-respecting standards and ideas. The group will serve as a forum for sharing information and coordinating joint advocacy at the national, regional and international levels. In 2021, we will prioritise outreach to potential member organisations based in India, Indonesia, the Philippines, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Tunisia, Morocco, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia and Honduras.
As our Rise Coalition Leader, you will build the network by identifying potential members, conducting outreach, developing RSI’s knowledge about the relevant national contexts and helping the coalition choose and pursue advocacy priorities. You will also help draft reports on the legal and advocacy environments in several priority countries.
This position reports to the Executive Director.
Person Specification:
· Degree in law, human rights, public policy or a related field.
· A minimum of 3-4 years of experience in international human rights advocacy, preferably including at least some experience with rights abuses related to security measures.
· Experience building coalitions at the international, national or grassroots level.
· Experience designing and implementing advocacy plans to achieve law reforms, accountability or an end to abuses.
· Deep experience working with a variety of communities and cultures.
· A record of drafting and publishing human rights analyses, advocacy documents (such as issue briefs for lawmakers or UN submissions) or similar materials.
· An ability to explain complex concepts to the public and advocacy targets in simple and approachable terms.
· A strong commitment diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.
· A strong commitment to working respectfully and sensitively with colleagues as well as a broad range of partners and stakeholders.
Other desirable but optional qualifications include:
· Expertise in one or more of the following areas: racial justice, gender rights or other aspects of equality; migrants’ rights; technology and privacy; or free expression and freedom of association.
· A graduate degree in a relevant field.
· Fluency in a language other than English is a strong plus, although not required.
You must speak and write English fluently.
