TUNISIA RESEARCHER

ABOUT THE ROLE:
The role is based together with the rest of the North Africa team in Amnesty International’s Tunis office. As a research-based campaigning organization, investigating and documenting human rights issues is fundamental to our advocacy and lobbying work. The MENA Regional Office requires researchers to take the lead in initiating human rights research and action by providing regional and thematic expertise, excellent research and report-writing skills and sound political judgement. A campaign oriented approach to your work is essential. You’ll be required to conduct research activities, monitor, investigate and analyse political, legal and social developments and human rights conditions, give authoritative advice on these areas and write reports and human rights action materials.

ABOUT YOU:
With experience of working on human rights issues, you’ll have first-hand in-depth knowledge and experience of  Tunisia, and an understanding and awareness of the economic and social rights as well as civil and political. You’ll have a background in activism, academia, law or journalism with the ability to identify and thoroughly investigate those issues and ensure our voice has authority. You’ll need proven research and communication skills, impartial political judgement, coupled with strong strategic thought. Fluency in English, French and Arabic, including excellent spoken, reading and writing skills, is essential.
