Communications and Social Media Officer (Part-Time) At Triangle

Triangle works to transform detailed, and often dense information into a compelling message that is visually appealing, generates maximum impact, and bridges the divide between policy-making, research, and the media. In doing so, we produce lasting results and positive impacts for the organisations we work with, and the communities we work in.

Badil, Triangle’s sister organisation, is an initiative committed to restoring the media’s crucial function to uphold political accountability to contribute to a richer, more inclusive, and informed democratic discourse.

Born out of Lebanon’s October 2019 uprising, Badil’s mission is to counter sloganeering and fear-mongering with common sense journalism that enables public understanding of complex policy issues, while also advocating for progressive reform and productive solutions. Badil’s work seeks to empower the public to fully scrutinise, understand, and respond to political discourse by providing objectively verifiable counter narratives to status-quo political discourse.
