Applications are invited for the Amnesty Ambassador School Speaker volunteer roles with Amnesty International Ireland. The volunteer role is offered on a part-time/flexible basis and the post holder will be part of the Campaigns and Activism team.
The support we receive from our volunteers is invaluable and highly recognised. This volunteer programme is designed to assist organisational staff in our youth activism work, providing a crucial role in supporting young people to learn about and take action for human rights. We work hard to ensure that our volunteers also benefit from the experience. Volunteers will gain valuable experience in public speaking, facilitating interactive workshops with secondary school students, and knowledge about human rights and the work of Amnesty International. Comprehensive training, classroom materials, and reimbursement costs will be provided to all volunteers. Volunteers undergo Garda Vetting through Amnesty International in line with best practice in child protection.
