**Application Deadline**: February 9, 2024

EarthRights International is a non-profit, non-governmental organization that combines the power
of law and the power of people in defense of human rights and the environment. We specialize in
fact-finding, legal action against perpetrators of human rights and environmental violations, training
for Indigenous organizations, and the training of Indigenous lawyers and leaders. Through these
strategies, EarthRights seeks to end these abuses and provide real solutions for affected
populations, promoting and protecting human and environmental rights in the communities where
we work.

**Brief job description**:
The Staff Attorney is a highly qualified professional committed to the defense and protection of the
human rights of Indigenous peoples and the environment, who is expected to formulate and
implement national and regional legal strategies to protect the rights of Indigenous communities
and populations in the Amazon region, especially those affected by extractive industries,
megaprojects, hydroelectric dams and criminalization of environmental defenders. The position

development of advocacy strategies, making use of human rights norms, mechanisms and
standards, as well as environmental legislation.

The position supports the development of current and future cases in our priority countries in the
region, as well as the strategic development of the Amazon legal work. The position also requires
building external alliances with Indigenous leaders and federations, networking with local partners,
providing legal capacity building and training to communities and their federations, Indigenous
lawyers and legal promoters in the Amazon. In addition to working with local lawyers to support
litigation at the national level in the priority countries, the Staff Attorney would also develop and
support cases in regional human rights bodies and U.S. courts (in cooperation with EarthRights’ U.S.
legal team), when appropriate.

**Primary responsibilities and expectations**:
? Develop legal work and lead legal processes as assigned at the national or regional level, and
develop innovative approaches to legal defense of human rights, as well as Indigenous peoples'
rights and the rights of nature in the region.
? Work with the Amazon Program legal team on an ongoing basis, and when required support the
EarthRights U.S. legal team.
? Work with lawyers, particularly Indigenous lawyers, as well as Indigenous leaders in defining
local, regional and transnational strategies.
? Lead training sessions with different actors working on human rights, environmental and
Indigenous rights legal actions in Peru and the region.
? Develop, in coordination with the person responsible for Education, training for Indigenous
peoples and communities leaders we work with.

? Assist the organization in maintaining relationships and alliances with other NGOs, Indigenous
federations and other partners in the region, and participate in activities and meetings with
these allies and communities.
? Write and communicate legal issues for different audiences, including working with the
Communications team, on public communications and engagement with donors and other
supporters.
? Conduct legal research and support advocacy actions at different levels in conjunction with
other organizations that enable the defense of Indigenous communities in the region.
? Perform other responsibilities assigned to fulfill the institutional objectives, displaying good
judgment and initiative.
? Interact in a friendly and professional manner with multi-ethnic/multilingual staff and work with
different cultures and within diverse teams.
Required Qualifications:
? Professional law degree, with a current license to practice law in the United States.
? At least 5 years of proven work experience related to legal defense and support to grassroots
