I think as a former serbian tiger and a good friend of Mr. Clown i’m already disqualified when it comes to human rights. I think most of us here are more qualified as volunteers to fight RuSSian Federation scum in Ukraine. Maybe Knut and Alina would qualify for this vacancy. 😎

The brilliant Halya Coynash of Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group is the ideal candidate. However, she already has an important job. The EP should canvass her for recommendations. For sure she will have them.

The salary won’t attract top line journalists. 234 euro a month is a pittance, even in Ukraine.

I think it’s only part time though? Would suit a recent graduate who has worked on something like Kharkiv Human Rights. I don’t know who funds it, but it is a superb site; probably the best of its kind in Ukraine. :-

It’s ridiculous when a pro Ukrainian media site has to ask for donations, yet the pro Russian crap flourishes.
