ISM Needs Experienced Longtermers And An Experienced Media Coordinator
ISM is currently looking for experienced international activists willing to come to Palestine for a period of at least three months. We are interested in recruiting activists to help with campaign coordination and to coordinate within the regions. As a longtermer, you will participate in:
Supporting Palestinian communities in demonstrating against the confiscation of their land by settlers and the Israeli military.
Working with Israeli and Palestinian organizations working to end the occupation through non-violent means.
Documenting human rights violations against Palestinians.
Monitoring checkpoints.
Participating in Palestinian-led non-violent direct action against the occupation.
Working side by side with Palestinians in working and harvesting crops.
ISM is also looking for an experienced media coordinator. The ideal candidate would be someone who supports the work of ISM, and who has experience, either with public relations, journalism or videography.
We are looking for someone with strong English editing and web skills. Arabic and Hebrew are not necessary, but are both a plus. There is possible compensation involved, as this position involves a lot of coordination. As media coordinator you will be responsible for:
Updating the palsolidarity website daily.
Editing reports from activists working with Palestinian communities in the West Bank.
Editing and uploading video.
Maintaining and initiating contacts with journalists in order to publicize ISM's work.
Writing press releases and media alerts.
