PICUM, the Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants, is a network of organisations working to ensure social justice and human rights for undocumented migrants.
Grounded in principles of social justice, anti-racism and equality, PICUM works to ensure that all migrants are entitled to a dignified standard of living and respect for their fundamental rights.
Bringing together the experiences and expertise of its members, PICUM provides a platform to engage policy makers and the general public in the full realisation of the rights of undocumented migrants.
Based in Brussels, the PICUM secretariat leads the network's advocacy, alliance-building, communications and research activities at the EU and international levels.
Unlike its members working on the frontline, PICUM's secretariat does not provide direct assistance to undocumented migrants but works to build a strong civil society network to support and give visibility to national-level efforts, and to promote non-discriminatory policies and practices.
Tasks:
- Assist PICUM's Advocacy Officers with background research, contact management, drafting of papers and other written materials, attend and report on events in Brussels;
- Follow relevant EU policy agendas and deepen your expertise in at least two of PICUM's strategic areas of work;
- Translate texts from English into other languages and from other languages into English (depending on language skills);
- Assist in producing content for PICUM's newsletters, blogs and social media;
- Assist with organising PICUM internal and external events, including PICUM's group sessions with members;
- Hosting some online events and taking care of the administrative tasks related to those events;
- Support in keeping updated the database and Google Groups, handling requests made by members and/or PICUM staff;
- Taking minutes at the weekly staff meetings and external events (if requested);
- Work flexibly alongside other members of the PICUM team to take on reasonable tasks as appropriate over and above those set out above.
