🏢 About Project Expedite Justice

Project Expedite Justice (PEJ) is a US-based NGO that uniquely combines legal expertise with a victim-centered approach to address mass atrocities. As a remote-friendly organization, it offers the chance to create impactful e-learning content that trains and supports human rights defenders in Ukraine and globally.

About This Role

As an E-Learning Videographer, you will produce high-quality instructional videos for the Digital Justice Hub, transforming complex legal content into accessible learning materials. Your work directly supports training for professionals addressing war crimes and human rights violations, making each video a tool for justice.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing raw footage from a recent workshop, then editing a lecture video while collaborating with an instructional designer to refine scripts. In the afternoon, you could set up lighting and audio for a live-streamed training, ensuring seamless production. Later, you'd organize files and plan the next day's shoot with subject matter experts.
