We are asking Local Coordinators to launch Amnesty Human Rights Where You Live initiatives in their area of the East Midlands, helping to bring together local people with an interest in human rights. This is an on-the-ground role promoting activism in your area.
Over the next twelve months, Coordinators would then support their local team to:
Raise awareness of and campaign on human rights issues locally.
Persuade local politicians to put human rights at the heart of their decisions
Engage their local community and ‘change the conversation’ on human rights
Mark International Human Rights Day on 10 December
Set up an Amnesty local group with fundraising to enable future campaigning
They would also have the chance to team up with other Coordinators to help develop and deliver a human rights campaign for the East Midlands.
This is a great opportunity to make a difference in your local area on issues you are passionate about while also gaining experience and confidence with a wide range of campaign and communication skills.
What support would I get?
Coordinators will be supported at every step by the Amnesty East Midlands Regional Organiser and other staff, who will provide:
Support for a local launch meeting for Human Rights Where You Live
Training in knowledge and skills
1-1 coaching
Organising, campaigning and fundraising resources
Face-to-face and online networking with other activists as a regional team.
My main staff point of contact would be: East Midlands Regional Organiser
All Coordinators would:
Communicate regularly with the East Midlands Regional Organiser
Feedback on their activities on a regular and structured basis.
Aim to attend a reasonable number of core training and networking sessions online and in-person, depending on individual circumstances.
What skills and knowledge are needed?
Some knowledge of your local area in the East Midlands.
Good written and oral communications skills
Experience of team-working
Basic IT competency (email, word processing, etc.) and internet access
Experience of campaigning is always welcome but not essential – we find that people often have skills from something else they have done that would be very helpful for the role.
How much time is needed?
We would estimate around 2-3 hours a week would be the average, although there may be some periods where more or less commitment is needed. We’d ask that you commit to your local Human Rights Where You Live project for at least one year, although we recognize that people’s circumstances do change.
We also understand that this role may need to fit around your family, studies, caring or other commitments.
Any other requirements?
Coordinators would need to be living in the East Midlands and unlikely to move in the next 12 months. We welcome interest from students at East Midlands universities.
We would ask that any Coordinator be at least 18. However, if you are under 18 but would still like to get involved in Amnesty, please do get in touch to find more about our youth groups.
We welcome interest from people who are already volunteering with another community or campaign group with an interest in human rights, and who are interested in doing a local Human Rights Where You Live project as a collaboration between Amnesty and that group.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

About Refugee Biryani & Bananas
Refugee Biriyani & Bananas (RBB) began as a grassroots movement in 2015, in response to the Syrian refugee crisis. What started as a group of friends distributing 2,500 portions of biriyani and bananas in the unofficial camp for displaced people in Dunkirk, Northern France, has grown into a community-driven humanitarian organisation. Initially working under the umbrella of another organisation, RBB became independent to better address gaps in aid and advocacy for displaced people worldwide.
What We Do
RBB supports people facing displacement, war, and inequality, tailoring actions to the needs of each situation. From food distributions to medical support and human rights advocacy, our work is versatile and responsive. We have provided aid in refugee and internally displaced persons (IDP) camps, squats, and other unstable settlements along migratory pathways, including:
France: Calais, Dunkirk & Paris
Greece: Idomeni, Thessaloniki, Athens, Lavrio, Samos & Chios (our main base)
Northern Iraq: Duhok
Serbia: Belgrade Barracks
Bosnia & Herzegovina - Croatia Border: Vucjak Camp
Turkey: Istanbul
Poland, Belarus & Lithuania Border
Ukraine Border (Poland and Ukraine sides)
Palestine: Gaza
Egypt: Cairo
Our Approach
RBB is a mobile grassroots organisation, designed to respond rapidly and flexibly to emerging crises. Our main base of operations is on Chios Island, Greece, where we provide ongoing support to people who are displaced.
Since October 2023, we have also established community-led initiatives to support people affected by the war in Gaza, Palestine, as well as Sudanese and other displaced communities in Cairo, Egypt.
Beyond emergency relief, we remain committed to ongoing support through volunteers, translation services, medical care, aid, and advocacy until either local capacity builds or the situation changes. In addition, our Community Humanitarian Leaders Programme (CHLP) plays a vital role in this approach by strengthening the leadership of people who are displaced by building on their existing skills, networks and lived experience in humanitarian efforts.
Our field team comprises 90% individuals from refugee and asylum-seeking communities, representing Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Gambia, Ethiopia, Palestine, and Yemen. This diverse team is led by our founder and CEO, Ruhi Akhtar, alongside field coordinators / project managers.
We prioritise dignity and equity, involving displaced individuals in decision-making and collaboration. RBB's direct aid includes food, water, shelter, medical supplies, clothing, hygiene packs, and season-specific items like sunscreen or firewood. Needs assessments and communication with affected communities guide our actions, ensuring targeted, person-centered care.
Advocacy & Awareness
RBB amplifies the voices of displaced people by sharing their stories and raising awareness about often-overlooked realities. Through storytelling and advocacy, we aim to challenge injustice and inspire action.
We are a safe space for all people and welcome those who are new to and currently underrepresented on Charity Boards, in particular members who consider themselves to have a disability and those in the global majority. Lived experience of migration or asylum or a commitment to this work is welcomed.
