We are led by those most affected by injustice, particularly from the Global South, ensuring the movement reflects the cultural and demographic reality of the world. We understand art as praxis — an active force capable of mobilizing people, shifting narratives, and reshaping systems. Our cultural work is inseparable from struggles for justice, ecological integrity, and collective liberation.

​

The movement connects artists, cultural workers, and activists across regions, building the infrastructure, relationships, and resources for Artivism to lead lasting change.

Core Principles & Structure

These principles shape how the movement works, how decisions are made, and what is asked of those who join.

• Global Majority Leadership and South–South Solidarity.
• Distributed Power and Fluid Leadership.
• Artists at the Center, Culture as Strategy.
• Intersectional and Community-Centered.
• Trust Before Scale.
• Emergence as Method.
• Transparency and Accountability.
   

Global Artivism is governed by a Global Council representing artists, activists, and movement builders from across regions. The Movement Secretariat is the coordination team that supports the Council operationally.

The Engagement

Global Artivism is contracting an Operations Fellow for a mentored, time-limited engagement focused on organizational infrastructure and systems design. The contractor will work alongside the Operations Director to design operational frameworks, from financial workflows and contractor management to governance alignment and onboarding processes, contributing directly to infrastructure decisions while building practical experience in how a Global Majority-led movement organization functions operationally. The Fellow is expected to contribute to operational development work, take initiative on assigned tasks, and grow through structured mentorship and engagement with the work.

​

This is an independent contractor engagement managed through Global Artivism’s fiscal sponsorship structure with Res Publica US Inc. The contractor sets their own working hours and methods, may provide services to other clients, and is responsible for their own taxes, insurance, and any local registrations or compliance requirements in their country of residence.

Coordination Relationships

• The contractor will coordinate primarily with the Operations Director, and will work alongside the Governance Lead, Project Manager, Admin Coordinator, and Movement Secretariat members on agreed deliverables.
• Coordination relationships do not constitute supervisory authority. Decision-making at Global Artivism is distributed through governance structures, committees, and collaborative processes.

Key Responsibilites

• ​Help ensure operational systems align with governance frameworks and democratic decision-making principles.

Systems Documentation & Knowledge Systems

• Create operational guidance and toolkits that enable distributed teams to handle processes independently.
• Build internal knowledge systems (documentation, checklists, decision trees) that make operational work transparent and transferable.

Capacity Building and Research

• Identify areas where documentation, process clarification, or systems redesign could enable teams to work more independently.
• Flag patterns in operational bottlenecks or inefficiencies and help think through solutions.
• Share learning from infrastructure work with Council, Committees, and teams as appropriate.
• Research operational models relevant to Global Artivism’s structure.

Qualifications

Required

• Manages multiple tasks and meets deadlines, with strong attention to detail and comfort coordinating logistics across a distributed team.

• Comfort with digital tools and platforms (Google Workspace, Slack, or similar).
• Genuine interest in operations, organizational systems, or movement infrastructure.
• Ability to operate as an independent contractor, including managing own schedule, tools, and tax compliance.

Applicants must confirm during the contracting process the country from which they will provide services to confirm applicable labor and tax rules.

Compensation & Work Arrangement

• Monthly contractor fee: USD $1,000 to $1,500/month, paid upon receipt of monthly invoices. 
• Payment terms and currency arrangements will be confirmed in the contractor agreement. All figures are monthly contractor fees, not employment salaries. This is an independent contractor engagement managed through Global Artivism’s fiscal sponsorship structure.

Background

There are approximately 170 million migrant workers in the world, 5% of the global workforce, and, as such, migrant workers play a critical role in the global economy. Their skills and labour add significantly to the economic vitality of destination countries. Their remittances sent home frequently help to sustain families and communities in origin countries, which may lack other viable income opportunities.

The IHRB Migrant Workers Programme seeks to advance global efforts aimed at ensuring that migrant workers everywhere are treated with dignity and respect. We work with businesses, civil society representatives, and governments to promote the rights of migrant workers in all sectors and locations.

Despite the global economic benefits of labour migration, many migrant workers face particular challenges at all stages of the migration cycle. In 2012, the Institute for Human Rights and Business developed the Dhaka Principles for Migration with Dignity, an overarching framework for businesses to understand and address those challenges. Over the last 14 years, the Dhaka Principles have been regularly used and referenced by a range of stakeholders from businesses and governments to non-governmental and academic experts.

The IHRB Migrant Workers Programme has a particular focus on issues of relevance to recruitment and seeks to address flawed recruitment practices to which many workers are routinely subjected. We seek to challenge the common practice of migrant workers being required to pay recruitment fees to secure employment abroad. IHRB promotes a recruitment industry business model based on the Employer Pays Principle, which affirms that no worker should pay for a job, and that the costs of recruitment should be borne not by the worker but by the employer.

The Responsible Recruitment Register

In 2022, IHRB developed and launched the Responsible Recruitment Register. The Register is a list of companies who have publicly available policies that include a prohibition of recruitment fees, costs, and charges to migrant workers. The Register is intended to increase transparency and accountability. We hope that the example of peer and competitor companies will also encourage more companies to develop appropriate policies. The Register can also be used in advocacy with business and government.

The Register simply records the existence of a policy relating to recruitment fees. IHRB does not undertake any analysis, audit or benchmarking of the implementation or effectiveness of those policies. In the long term, IHRB envisions a shift in market norms so that responsible recruitment is no longer driven by a small group of leaders, but is increasingly expected by businesses, recruiters, governments, and workers themselves. Companies sourcing across key migration corridors demand fee-free recruitment as a baseline requirement; recruitment agencies adopt transparent, employer-funded business models; and governments reinforce these expectations through policy, guidance, and enforcement. Together, these changes reduce workers’ exposure to debt, coercion, and exploitation at the point of recruitment. A core marker of success is that responsible recruitment becomes visible, comparable, and actionable at scale.

The Responsible Recruitment Register enables stakeholders to identify who is implementing EPP-aligned practices, benchmark progress over time, and learn from peers.

Through this short-term consultancy, IHRB will strengthen and expand the Responsible Recruitment Register as a tool for improving transparency and accountability in recruitment markets. The consultancy will support a significant increase in the number and diversity of companies, while also improving the quality, accessibility and comparability of the information presented.

This will help the Register move beyond its current role as a signalling tool and become a more widely used resource for accountability, benchmarking and decision-making. By making EPP-aligned commitments more visible and easier to compare, the Register will support peer learning, create positive competitive pressure across sectors and supply chains, and encourage more consistent adoption of the Employer Pays Principle.

Role Overview

The Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB) seeks expertise from a credible organisation or individual with proven research experience on business and labour migration. This short-term consultancy will take place over a period of 2 months with 35 working days (ideally August – September 2026) and with the following outputs:

1. Undertake a review of the recruitment policies of 5,000 companies and 250 industry associations;
2. Collate company information into a database for use in an advocacy campaign
3. Review of Existing Register Entries for Policy Updates and Changes
4. Develop Removal Criteria for Companies, Associations and Recruitment Agencies

• Role location: flexible (home based)
• Duration of consultancy: 35 Days / 2 months approx.

In 2026-2027, IHRB will expand and modernise the platform through a new, user-friendly interface to enhance visibility and impact. Public commitments to EPP made by companies, associations, recruiters and governments will be recorded and tracked through the Responsible Recruitment Register, enabling accountability and visibility over time. Specifically, this includes:

• 1,000 new companies added over two years, based on the expectation that ~20% of assessed companies will meet zero-fee criteria, bringing the total companies on the Register to ~1,400 by the end of 2027.
• 50 additional industry associations assessed and listed as compliant, bringing the total to ~80 associations.

The expected outcomes of an expanded Responsible Recruitment Register include: greater market visibility for EPP adopters, contributing to positive competitive pressure and peer learning; improved accountability as register data enables stakeholders to track progress and identify gaps; and registers widely used as reference points for due diligence, sourcing decisions, and industry initiatives. Over time, the Register will expand to create a comprehensive and enduring global transparency resource — serving as a reference point for buyers, suppliers, recruiters, investors, and governments seeking practical pathways toward the Employer Pays Principle.

Deliverables

1. Review and collation of company recruitment policies:

Review the recruitment /migrant worker / forced labour / human rights policies/ supplier guidance and standards of 5000 companies collecting data on their publicly available policies relating to the recruitment of migrant workers in their direct operations or extended supply chains.. We are particularly interested in whether companies have a prohibition on the payment of recruitment fees, costs, and charges by migrant workers to secure employment – these fees being the responsibility of the employer – The Employer Pays Principle. Companies with appropriate public policies will feature in the IHRB Responsible Recruitment Register.

2. Review and collation of Industry Association recruitment policies

Review and collate publicly available policies, standards, codes of conduct and member guidance issued by industry associations relating to the recruitment of migrant workers, forced labour, human rights, responsible business conduct and supply-chain due diligence. Relevant documents may include association websites, membership codes, supplier standards, sector guidance, certification requirements, due diligence tools, public commitments and policy statements. Associations with clear and publicly available policies aligned with responsible recruitment and the Employer Pays Principle will be included in the IHRB Responsible Recruitment Register.

3. Review of Existing Register Entries for Policy Updates and Changes

Review the existing 407 companies and 37 industry associations currently listed on the Responsible Recruitment Register to identify any updates, changes or gaps in their publicly available policies. This will include checking whether existing links remain active, whether policy documents have been revised, removed or replaced, and whether any new commitments relating to responsible recruitment, migrant worker protection, recruitment fees, forced labour, human rights due diligence or the Employer Pays Principle have been introduced. The review will help ensure that the Register remains accurate, current and reliable as a transparency and accountability resource.

4. Collation of company information for advocacy campaign

Whilst reviewing recruitment policies, collate additional information that will be subsequently used in an advocacy campaign based on those policies regarding recruitment. This would include:

Company details:

• Name of company
• Company address
• Name of Chief Executive
• Sustainability contact including email address.
• Membership of trade or sustainable business associations

Policies:

o Dedicated Migrant Worker Policy

o Prohibition on recruitment fees to workers

o Reference to Employer Pays Principle

o Reference to fee repayment if workers are found to have paid.

o Reference to Dhaka Principles

5. Develop Removal Criteria for Companies, Associations and Recruitment Agencies

The consultant will review the current Responsible Recruitment Register process and work with IHRB to develop a clear, transparent and consistent approach for removing entries from all three Registers (companies, industry associations, and recruitment agencies). This includes practical guidance on removal criteria and procedures that can be published on the Register website, so that future decisions are based on publicly available criteria and stakeholders understand the basis on which listings may be reviewed or removed.

All removal-related information will be captured in a master Excel-type tracking document, including links to the relevant policy, certification or assessment document underpinning each entry, so that the basis for a listing — and any future decision to remove it — is clearly documented and traceable.

The approach will need to reflect that companies and associations are generally removed on procedural grounds (e.g. an expired certification or a policy that no longer meets EPP criteria), while recruitment agencies require a different approach. The consultant will also help design a simple, published channel for raising concerns about a listing, with a clear process for how such concerns are handled.

The consultant is not expected, and should not, contact any company or agency directly. All information should be based on what is publicly available.
