Duration: 12 months, from 13 February 2023 to 12 February 2024.
SAHR is a peer-led network-based organization by and for human rights defenders all over the world.
Our mission is to fuel a worldwide network of human rights defenders to strengthen laws, policies and practices to end sexual and gender-based violence (“SGBV”).
We are opening the position of a Program Associate Consultant to help us to incubate and support interventions for change across SAHR programs:
The Gender Justice Fellowship Program: for advocates pursuing an intervention to end SGBV in court or in law and policy. Advocates are supported with technical and financial support to conduct research, fact-finding, criminal and civil investigation in relation to a case or intervene in a law or policy reform opportunity in their countries. SAHR Coalition of Afghan Legal Experts: for Afghan human rights defenders and legal experts to exchange strategies to increase women’s access to justice in Afghanistan. Through the coalition, we are working to advance a new vision of gender justice under Islamic law to safeguard and defend the human rights of women and other marginalized communities.
SAHR Justice Lab: to educate women and diverse human rights defenders from around the world on rights-based law and policy to end SGBV; and to convene and provide policy-relevant knowledge to international organizations, governments and policymakers. SAHR Justice Podcast: to memorialize and share the works of advocates, academics and experts.
