ABOUT THE REFUGEE HUB
Purpose has launched an urgent initiative to support efforts to welcome refugees and counter rising anti-migrant sentiment in Europe, the US and other key countries.
The Refugee Hub is an entirely new model that will take the best elements of digital mobilisation, storytelling, policy research, advocacy and organising to change hearts and minds on one of the world’s most pressing crises, where shifts in public opinion are having an immediate impact on policies towards some of the world’s most vulnerable people.
Purpose’s Refugee Hub is focused on:
- activating, organising and amplifying groups that are already supportive of migration and refugees
- identifying and influencing mainstream audiences, with the goal of changing the overall dynamics of the migration and refugee debates
Germany’s leadership in accepting over one million refugees in 2015 means that the perceived success or failure of refugee integration in Germany will greatly influence the refugee and migration policies of other nations in Europe and beyond. We are looking to contract an
all-star Senior Campaigner
to help build this new initiative from the ground up and lead the effort to fortify and strengthen pro-refugee sentiment within Germany.
You don’t need to be an expert on refugee issues but you need to feel driven by a deep sense of compassion for your fellow humans.
We are looking for someone who thinks in stories, who works in teams, who stands in solidarity and has a deep ambition to play a critical role in creating impact on one of the world’s biggest crisis.
This is a new type of crisis, help us build a new initiative to match it.
