Social Media Assistant

Background 

The Jerusalem Human Rights Consortium (JHRC) is a consortium of four leading Palestinian human rights organizations native in Jerusalem – The Jerusalem Legal Aid and Human Rights Centre (JLAC), The Land Research Centre (LRC), The Saints Yves Association (St Yves) and the Women’s Centre for legal Aid and Counselling (WCLAC).  

The consortium has started the implementation of the project Protecting Marginalized Communities in East Jerusalem through legal aid, planning and advocacy, funded by the EU East Jerusalem Programme. The overall objective of the project is to support the marginalised Palestinian communities in East Jerusalem, increase their resilience, prevent forcible transfer and reinforce the Palestinian identity of East Jerusalem through the provision of legal aid, land planning assistance, and local and international advocacy efforts. 

In partnership with Palestinian and European organisations, JHRC is organising a multi-day event that will gather the principal human rights actors active in Palestine and Europe in order to address several key challenges.  

JHRC is planning to develop a social media strategy for the event that will contribute to keep event attendees active and engaged during the event and reinforce the event’s value once it has ended. To ensure the best experience to physical and remote participants, the social media strategy should be creative, effective and original. JHRC is inviting proposals from qualified consultants or communication agencies available for an immediate start with a track record of success in executing results-driven social media campaigns.
