Open Call for New Members toJoin the Advisory Board of the Anti-Racism Movement in Lebanon

ARM’s mission is to decrease racist discrimination and abuse in Lebanon on the social and institutional levels by advocating for changes in the systems that perpetuate racist exploitative practices, through sensitization, awareness raising, advocacy, and community building for more just social and institutional frameworks in Lebanon. The main focus of this work is on organizing with migrant domestic workers.

إنّ Migrant Community Centers (MCCs). The MCC is a safe space tailored to migrant workers and evolving according to their needs, where they can meet, learn new skills, work together, and access information, resources and assistance. Since its creation in 2011, MCC has been offering free classes and other educational, social, and capacity-building activities, such as language classes, computer classes, health awareness sessions, rights education, advocacy training, cultural events, social gatherings, and various types of celebrations.

ARM is expanding and alternating the membership of its Advisory Board and is looking to recruit two members by the end of April 2023, for a three-year term.

The role of the Advisory Board (AB) is to appoint, support, and evaluate the Co-Directors, and to oversee the outputs of the organization by ensuring that the plans and objectives are met. The AB is essential in providing feedback and recommendations for programs, strategy, administration, financial management, and in advising on major concerns and strategic decisions, thus sustaining ARM’s growth, structural development, and long-term strategy.

We are looking for dedicated and motivated individuals to join our AB.

Members should be:

    • Aligned with ARM’s values and feminist politics.
    • Familiar with topics such as feminism, labour migration issues, activism, and related fields.
    • Able to join two board meetings per year in Beirut, where ARM is based.
    • Able to commit the time required (an average of 8 hours/month) to support the work of the organization.
    • Periodically engaging in a reflective, self-evaluative process to improve advisory board effectiveness.
    • Able to consult on strategic, sustainable growth, as well as the structure of ARM.

Whilst we would love to hear from anyone with interest and experience, for this recruitment round we are particularly interested in recruiting members that have expertise in:

    • Financial planning, human resources work in feminist organizations, safeguarding practices, advocacy, anti-racism, movement building, labor justice, grassroots organizing, communication, organizational strategy and leadership, and risk/ audit management.

Specific responsibilities of AB members include (full details in TOR):

    • Support the senior management of ARM by electing, evaluating, and supporting the Co-Directors. 
    • Oversee the organizational budget and financial management and share potential opportunities for growth, avenues of networking, event participation, and relevant funding opportunities. 
    • Sustain the organization by providing strategic guidance and evaluate its output, strategy, policy and operational decisions. 
    • Help build a healthy work environment by overseeing governance and accountability within the organization, assisting in hiring, mitigating upon request between staff and supporting overall wellbeing. 
    • Advising on sensitive, controversial strategic decisions, and on security concerns and mechanisms to prevent security breaches.

All board members should be able to speak, write and read in English. Arabic is a useful extra.

We hope to recruit 2-3 new board members within the next few months. We would love to hear from you if you think you would be a valuable addition to our team. Please send your CV with a letter of motivation describing your expertise and alignment with ARM values to board@armlebanon.org

The closing date for applications is May 5, 2023.
