Learn more about CPJ’s fight to defend freedom of the press here: http://cpj.org/ Nearly half the journalists killed worldwide in 2022 were killed in the Americas – a reflection of the risks journalists face in the region. While deadly violence remains a major form of censorship in countries like Mexico and Haiti, a combination of tactics is being used to stifle press freedom, criminalize journalism, and push reporters into exile. Entire regions have now become so-called silenced zones, where journalists are no longer able to do meaningful critical or investigative reporting. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) confronts these challenges by documenting major press freedom violations and the context in which they happened, supporting local reporters, working in partnership with media organizations, and doing advocacy on their behalf with governments and regional bodies. CPJ’s work has secured the release of dozens of imprisoned journalists, supported the development of new safety mechanisms, and served as the basis for campaigns seeking to derogate criminal defamation laws and end impunity. Position Overview: To lead this critical work moving forward, CPJ seeks a Program Coordinator for Latin America and the Caribbean. This position, reporting to the Program Director, will be responsible for leading our research and advocacy in the region. Applicants should have reporting experience, extensive knowledge of media and human rights issues in the region, and a clear commitment to press freedom. The ideal candidate is as comfortable chatting with an imprisoned journalist as they are addressing a head of state. This is a collaborative, strategic, and public-facing role, with regular travel in the region expected. This position is part of a collective bargaining unit represented by the Writers Guild of America, East. Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities: Set research and advocacy priorities in Latin America and the Caribbean. Lead a team of researchers and correspondents reporting on press freedom and attacks on journalists in the region. Oversee the production of daily and long-form reports on press freedom. Serve as a senior CPJ spokesperson with the media, governments, partner organizations, and civil society, including regular travel. Anticipate and respond to news and events affecting press freedom and journalists. Manage a team of researchers and correspondents based across the region. In collaboration with the Advocacy team, devise and support advocacy efforts, including the work on emblematic cases and issues in the region. In collaboration with the Emergencies team, monitor potentially dangerous situations and assist distressed journalists within the framework of CPJ's journalist assistance and safety work. Education/Qualifications and Work Experience: At least five years of reporting experience in the region. A deep understanding of how media in the region works and its specific press freedom challenges. Proven skills in writing concise and high-quality reports including the capacity to digest, interpret, and accurately summarize reports and data. Proven ability to interact with senior leadership in government and in other national, regional, and international organizations. Fluent Spanish is required.

Overview of the Committee to Protect Journalists...
The Committee to Protect Journalists was founded over 40 years ago as a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization with the mission of defending journalists who report the news despite facing tremendous risks. Over the years, our advocacy has helped win dozens of positive legal reforms, convictions in scores of journalist murders, and the release of hundreds of jailed journalists. CPJ has also provided direct assistance to thousands of journalists all over the world. Today, we are recognized as a leader in the global fight to protect press freedom.
Journalists play a key role in exposing abuses and corruption, a critical task in developing countries where challenges exist around health, education, poverty, equity, equality, and other issues. But CPJ’s efforts are not just about defending the rights of journalists. They are also about ensuring that information is a shared global resource necessary to ensure accountability and deliver economic growth is available to all people everywhere, particularly those disadvantaged by censorship, violence, and repression.
By ensuring journalists are able to report the news freely, CPJ defends the right of people globally to access the critical information they need to make informed decisions in all areas of their lives and to hold decision-makers accountable. When a country’s journalists are silenced, its people are silenced. By protecting journalists, CPJ protects freedom of expression and democracy.
CPJ confronts the challenges to journalists and press freedom all over the world, especially during the global COVID-19 pandemic, and sustained crises in Afghanistan and Ukraine. We are rising to meet this need and developing innovative new strategies to support journalists in crises worldwide. We are connecting with consultants and organizations on the ground to build robust, local networks of support for journalists and ensure that rapid response is possible.
Position Overview:
With a newly approved strategic plan and under new leadership, the Committee to Protect Journalists is entering an exciting new period of growth. In order to execute the ambitious plans laid out in the three-year strategic plan, CPJ is hiring for two newly created senior development roles who will play pivotal roles in helping shape the future of the organization at a time when press freedom is under unprecedented attack.
The Grants Officer is a critical member of CPJ’s development team and is responsible for developing and driving strategies to engage with current partners, secure new grants to support our growing work, and lead efforts to identify and cultivate new institutional partners. They will

Overview of the Committee to Protect Journalists...
The Committee to Protect Journalists was founded over 40 years ago as a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization with the mission of defending journalists who report the news despite facing tremendous risks. Over the years, our advocacy has helped win dozens of positive legal reforms, convictions in scores of journalist murders, and the release of hundreds of jailed journalists. CPJ has also provided direct assistance to thousands of journalists all over the world. Today, we are recognized as a leader in the global fight to protect press freedom.
Journalists play a key role in exposing abuses and corruption, a critical task in developing countries where challenges exist around health, education, poverty, equity, equality, and other issues. But CPJ’s efforts are not just about defending the rights of journalists. They are also about ensuring that information is a shared global resource necessary to ensure accountability and deliver economic growth is available to all people everywhere, particularly those disadvantaged by censorship, violence, and repression.
By ensuring journalists are able to report the news freely, CPJ defends the right of people globally to access the critical information they need to make informed decisions in all areas of their lives and to hold decision-makers accountable. When a country’s journalists are silenced, its people are silenced. By protecting journalists, CPJ protects freedom of expression and democracy.
CPJ confronts the challenges to journalists and press freedom all over the world, especially during the global COVID-19 pandemic, and sustained crises in Afghanistan and Ukraine. We are rising to meet this need and developing innovative new strategies to support journalists in crises worldwide. We are connecting with consultants and organizations on the ground to build robust, local networks of support for journalists and ensure that rapid response is possible.
