Recruiting Organization: Human Rights Watch - Southern California

The Southern California Human Rights Watch office is looking for volunteers to support the Los Angeles team with in-person events in the LA area, including organizational researcher briefings, film screenings, and our annual Voices for Justice Gala.

About Us:

Human Rights Watch investigates and reports on abuses happening in all corners of the world. We are roughly 450 people of 70-plus nationalities who are country experts, lawyers, journalists, and others who work to protect the most at risk, from vulnerable minorities and civilians in wartime, to refugees and children in need. We direct our advocacy towards governments, armed groups and businesses, pushing them to change or enforce their laws, policies and practices. To ensure our independence, we refuse government funding and carefully review all donations to ensure that they are consistent with our policies, mission, and values. We partner with organizations large and small across the globe to protect embattled activists and to help hold abusers to account and bring justice to victims.

Volunteer Roles & Responsibilities:

Volunteer responsibilities may include event set-up, attendee check-in, ushering, welcoming panelists, and general event support.

All volunteers will receive complimentary food & drinks, a HRW t-shirt, and an invitation to our annual Volunteer Mixer as a thank you for your time.

If you have any questions or are interested in being added to our volunteer database & HRW community, please reach out to Jazlyn Raymond at LA@HRW.org.
