URI Global Content Creators and Social Media Ambassador Program

Positions Available - Multiple

URI is looking to make the good news widely available on social media and to provide visibility to amazing initiatives being implemented by network members at the grassroots. Through the Global Content Creator & Social Media Ambassador Program, URI will establish a decentralized cadre of local communicators embedded in our regions, equipped to capture authentic stories and amplify them to the world.

The URI Regional Content Creator & Social Media Ambassador Program ("the Program") will engage talented communicators from URI's regions to serve as storytelling partners of the Global Support Office. Selected individuals will gather, produce, and share high-quality content that showcases the daily impact of URI Cooperation Circles (CCs), regional initiatives, and member activities, and URI’s purpose worldwide.

Target Audience:

  • Primary: Young people aged 18 to 35. Those already active in interfaith work and those curious about it, whom URI aims to reach, inspire, and welcome into the movement. Content decisions about platforms, formats, and tone are made with this audience first.
  • Secondary: Prospective and existing supporters and donors. Individuals, partners, and funders who want to see the tangible impact of URI's work on the ground, and whose confidence and generosity sustain it.
  • Tertiary: The wider URI community and public. Existing members, Cooperation Circles, and the general public, who help amplify URI's stories and strengthen its global reputation and reach.
