Job Boards for Digital Rights Defenders
As you all know, Team CommUNITY runs the Digital Rights Job Board, which features jobs submitted to us from organizations around the world working on different aspects of digital rights. This includes tools, civil society organizations, grassroots networks, research centers, and much more.
However, given this year’s historic funding cuts, many folks in our field and adjacent spaces are looking for work. We are creating a list of alternative job boards that may help you with your current quest. Additionally, while we have limited capacity - as we too have been hit by funding cuts - if you need someone to review your resume, feel free to send it our way via email. We will do our best to provide feedback in a timely fashion.
The following job board list is meant to help folks in our community currently seeking work - not all websites listed focus on digital rights. Some focus on human rights, others on technology, etc. We will be updating this list in the coming months. If you have a job board you would like us to include, please email us at team@digitalrights.community - we will gladly add it.
