Human Dignity Education Coordinator, London


International Human Rights Education Project Coordinator Amnesty International


Salary; £34,884
Amnesty International’s Human Rights Education Team at the International Secretariat in London is growing. 
We are seeking an Education for Human Dignity Project Coordinator to join our team. The role is a fixed term contract starting immediately to 31 May 2013 and is based in London, UK.
About the role
As a valued member of the Human Rights Education Team, you will oversee the final stages of Amnesty International’s Education for Human Dignity project and ensure its adequate closure, in particular working with internal partners and external donors to ensure that the project is coordinated, implemented, reported on and evaluated within the agreed timeline and resources.
The Education for Human Dignity Project aims to raise awareness, inform debate and enable action in order to tackle human rights abuses that drive and deepen poverty. Through human rights education and participatory approaches, young people and those that work with them (including teachers, youth workers and multipliers) have an increased understanding of the relationship between poverty and human rights, and will be equipped and empowered to take action and call for human rights solutions to poverty.
About you
You will have demonstrated experience in human rights education project management, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Your experience will include managing externally-funded projects (ideally by EuropeAid), with proven skills in reporting to external donors and partners, financial management, problem identification, stakeholder engagement, and evaluation.  You will have knowledge of monitoring and evaluating of projects related to human rights, human rights education or other education for social change, as well as an understanding of and practical experience in using human rights education methodology to deliver human rights education projects. You will also have experience in drafting substantial external and internal reports and briefings, including reports based on results based management and theory of change frameworks, as well as experience in monitoring and overseeing large complex multi-currency budgets.
About us
Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. Already our network of over three million members and supporters is making a difference in 150 countries. And whether we’re conducting human rights education or applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.

Recordando o Bispo D. António Ferreira Gomes, humanista


Estávamos em 1958, havia censura na imprensa, não havia liberdade de expressão nem de associação.

 O Bispo do Porto, D. António Ferreira Gomes, escreveu uma Carta  a Salazar (1958)
...
"...Desejo precisar que, ao formular estas perguntas, não quero sugerir qualquer benevolência ou favor para a actividade cívico-política dos católicos; antes pelo contrário, penso que se não forem capazes de aguentar o desfavor e animosidade do Poder pouco podem merecer o respeito e a liberdade. Apenas sugiro e peço, mas isso com toda a nitidez e firmeza, o respeito, a liberdade, e a não-descriminação devidos ao cidadão honesto em qualquer sociedade civil.

Desejo ainda precisar que esta minha atitude e diligências que me resolvi a desenvolver como servidor da Igreja, são no entanto da minha única e exclusiva responsabilidade...."

Tornando-se persona non-grata para o regime, este humanista de coragem, que se viu obrigado pela sua consciência  a entrar na política  esteve exilado mais de um década.

Segundo informação prestada sobre o assunto por Luís Fidalgo, vice-presidente da Câmara Municipal de Carregal do Sal e membro do Conselho de Administração da Fundação, a comunicação da Secretaria de Estado da Administração Pública expressa que o Governo “decidiu, não reduzir ou cessar os apoios financeiros públicos e/ou não cancelar o estatuto de utilidade pública da Fundação Aristides de Sousa Mendes”.
O esforço de toda a Administração e de todos os amigos que têm ajudado a Fundação Aristides de Sousa Mendes começou a dar os seus frutos. Agora, vamos continuar a trabalhar para que se faça justiça, recuperando a Casa do Passal”, sublinha Luís Fidalgo.
