OPEN (Online Progressive Engagement Network)

About OPEN

The Online Progressive Engagement Network (OPEN) is a global not-for-profit organization that supports independent digital campaigning groups in 17 countries to share knowledge, build connections across borders, and run collaborative campaigns on a range of issues, all in order to win progressive change.

OPEN’s staff is made up of a small international team of campaigners, technologists and support staff. We work to support a Network of 17 digital campaigning organizations, each an independent, non-profit, nationally-based organization working on multiple issues, but all sharing a common set of values and a general strategic orientation. Groups in the network tend to work on climate change, human rights, gender and racial justice, economic fairness, strengthening democracy, and empowering individual people to lift their voices to make change in their community and their country.

Our model focuses on the power of people: we believe change comes when communities come together. Our member organizations engage millions of people worldwide. As part of the OPEN team, your role will be to support the staff working on this important mission. We provide resources and build strong connections among the staff and volunteers who assist these grassroots changemakers. By doing this, OPEN strengthens and grows the global progressive movement. We help our member organizations become more powerful, efficient, and wise by encouraging collaboration and inspiration across borders.
