Amnesty Canada does not keep resumes sent on speculation.

Persons interested in working for Amnesty Canada or applying for the internships are encouraged to check this page regularly.

Amnesty International is committed to employment equity, welcomes diversity in the workplace and encourages applications from all qualified applicants including women, members of racial minorities, aboriginal peoples and persons with disabilities.

VOLUNTEERING

Volunteering at Amnesty International Canada is very rewarding and does not require a huge time commitment. Hours are flexible and the staff and volunteers are dedicated to human rights activism globally, and in the community. Volunteering with Amnesty is a great way to meet others who want to make a difference.

Persons wishing to volunteer outside of office hours are encouraged to become members of the organization.
