Diversity and Inclusion

We are committed to becoming a diverse, inclusive, safe and anti-racist movement where people thrive. We want to build a movement that is representative of the communities that we work alongside and genuinely values unique expertise and experience. We are committed to ensuring that our people feel valued, respected, heard and seen.

At Amnesty, diversity is about all the differences that exist between people in relation to their Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identity, age, caring responsibilities, cultural background, disability, ethnicity, gender identity, religion, sex characteristics, sexual orientation, and socio-economic background. Diversity also recognises the ways that people are different in other respects such as family composition, educational level, geographical location, class, financial status, professional and work experiences, and organisational role.

We strongly encourage people from diverse backgrounds to apply, and specifically people who are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

Accessibility

We are committed to making reasonable adjustments for candidates with a disability, caring or parenting responsibilities or other access needs during the different stages of the recruitment process. If you require reasonable adjustments to be made at any stage of the recruitment process or require alternative formats to any of the job application or interview materials, please email us at humanresources@amnesty.org.au.

Wellbeing

We are committed to the health and wellbeing of our movement so that we can be more effective in defending human rights. The mental health and wellbeing of Amnesty staff, volunteers and activists is a key factor in determining the long-term effectiveness and sustainability of our movement.
