Brussels, Belgique PICUM - Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants Temps plein

**Vacancy for Communications and Events Trainee at the Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants (PICUM)**

3 April 2023 - 29 September 2023 (6 months)

PICUM, the Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants, is a network of individuals and 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. Bringing together the experiences and expertise of its members, PICUM generates and coordinates a humane and informed response to undocumented migrants’ realities and provides a platform to engage policy makers and the general public in the full realisation of their rights.

Based in Brussels, the PICUM secretariat leads the network’s advocacy, awareness raising, and research activities. 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 each other and challenge discriminatory policies and practices.

- Support database and contact management and handle information requests
- Produce minutes of staff and other meetings in rotation with other trainees, manage the info mailbox, and track external requests;
