Belgium is in a unique place to influence European policy on Sudan.  By campaigning in Belgium you could push the cause of divestment in Brussels, as well as ensuring Belgian investors aren’t contributing to atrocities in Darfur.  See below for more about what we’re after and how we can help.

The Aegis Trust and Darfur Divestment are seeking volunteers who wish to run a Darfur advocacy campaign or Sudan Divestment campaign in Belgium.

Qualifications

You should have a commitment to human rights campaigning and the time to dedicate to organising petitions, political lobbying campaigns, protest events and media work.

It needn't take too much time - especially if you share the work with other volunteers. To leave your name and email address on this page to be contacted by other potential volunteers please email us at: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

If you have skills and experience in areas such as political lobbying, human rights campaigning or press and media relations this would be desirable but not essential.

We can help...

The Aegis Trust and Darfur Divestment help in the following ways:

• we can help build your campaign a website, email newsletter and online donation system
• we can translate key documents such as the Sudan Divestment Taskforce's list of 'companies which warrant scrutiny'
• we can help design a logo for your campaign and help with the design of leaflets and other materials
• we can provide advice and guidance throughout the early stages of your campaign
• we can introduce you to other members of the Darfur Divestment campaign.

I'd like to help - what's the next step?
