Description

STAND News is looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join our team as multimedia content creators, with a focus on social media video content including reels and short-form video. You might create a weekly global news round-up, student interviews on issues that matter, or short explainer videos — all tied to our core themes of culture, education, environment, gender, migration & conflict, and politics, with a local-to-global lens.

No prior experience is needed, just curiosity about global justice and sustainability, and a willingness to learn. Training is provided.
