Communications & Marketing Volunteers; Remote

Seeking Communications & Marketing Volunteers (Remote)

DAP is the leading nonprofit organization that provides long-term independent oversight of disaster management systems. DAP engages a dedicated community to advance policy research and advocacy, promote transparency, and encourage the public to participate in oversight, community-based organizing, and discussions about disaster preparedness and relief. Dedicated citizen oversight is necessary to ensure resources dedicated to preparedness, relief, and recovery are effectively utilized, communities are sufficiently engaged and more resilient, and best practices and lessons learned are implemented so mistakes are not repeated.

Prior to the creation of the Disaster Accountability Project (DAP), there was no dedicated, independent oversight of the agencies and organizations responsible for these critical life-saving responsibilities.

We are recruiting a full volunteer marketing/communications team to assist in the following areas with the expectation/goal that volunteers would be engaged for mid-to-long-term, ideally 6+ months, anywhere from 5 hours/week or more.

• Social Media
• Newsletters (External and to our network of NGOs)
• Diaspora engagement/outreach
• Comms/Rapid Response
• Op-Ed/Ghost Writing
• Webinars (external and for our network of NGOs)
• Profiling orgs on Smart Response for greater visibility
• Google Ads/Digital Marketing
• Pitching stories
• Media List Building, outreach, engagement

In addition, members of this team will have an opportunity to participate in webinars and even offer one-on-one office hours (on marketing/comms) to organizations in our network, mostly locally-led NGOs/nonprofits in the disaster risk reduction/response/recovery/humanitarian/human services sectors across the U.S. and in over 70 countries.
