  • Commitment to meet bi-weekly online and in-person approximately every 2 months in London (travel costs reimbursed).
     
Your Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with the research team to incorporate data and evidence-based insights into campaign messaging and strategies.
  • Coordinate events and activities (such as webinars or publicity stunts) related to ongoing campaigns, ensuring timely and relevant outreach and community engagement.
  • Develop partnerships with other organisations, community groups, and activists to strengthen campaign reach and impact.
  • Support the wider team on an ad-hoc basis. E.g Working with other team members to support their activities at busier times, as per agreed with all parties.
     
Note: If you have a specific research field or interest, we are open to incorporating your ideas into our work. This is a volunteer-led network that encourages members to bring their ideas and perspectives to the table. For more information on what this looks like in practice, please get in touch. 

 

What We Offer You: 

  • A supportive group of peers who are passionate about feminist activism and committed to working collaboratively.
  • Reimbursement of travel costs for in-person meetings in London.
  • Opportunities to travel to events, conferences, and protests across the UK, allowing you to engage with the wider activist community.
