Volunteer Opportunities

The International Secretariat of Amnesty International in London and its seven global offices runs a voluntary programme.

We currently have 115 volunteers and interns supporting the work that we do.

The support we get from volunteers and interns is invaluable and we could not function without them. Volunteers help our members of staff with all aspects of their work and are involved in all programmes across the International Secretariat.

Some of that work includes:

• monitoring the international press
• translating
• undertaking research
• designing web pages
• raising funds
• supporting human resources and accounting programmes

Volunteers are generally associated with work of an administrative nature and recruited for a minimum three-month period.

We ask that you read this information sheet for guidance on how best to complete your application form.

Please fill out a separate application form for each position you are interested in and return your form to us either by email, fax or by post.

Note that only short-listed candidates will be contacted for an interview within six weeks from the closing date.

Due to limited resources we are unable to retain unsuccessful applications and therefore encourage applicants to re-apply for other suitable voluntary roles.
