Become a Community Campaigner

People should join and become Community Campaigners with ActionAid because it’s a nice feeling that little by little you can change the world

Giulia, Community Campaigner

Our Community Campaigners are part of a global network of passionate feminist campaigners that spans more than 25 countries. Together they have fun, help shape our strategy, and make real, positive change to women and girls’ lives. 

Help take our campaigns to the next level

ActionAid Community Campaigners in the UK work together to help end violence against women and girls. Together we lead on, design and take part in exciting campaigning activities – from engaging the public in ActionAid campaigns at festivals, to attending marches, writing blogs, or speaking at events. We're all different, so we support campaigns in different ways. But we all go the extra mile to help end violence against women and girls 

Want to join the network? Take a look at the Community Campaigner role description, and sign up below.

Community Campaigners at ActionAid UK have created a Feminist Newsletter. Our July edition includes an introduction to intersectional feminism, what we mean by Feminist Leadership as well as a few articles by us. It's a good taster of what we get up to. Read the Feminist Newsletter.

As a Community Campaigner you will:  

  • Come up with ideas for campaign activities and put them into action 
  • Learn about women’s rights campaigning and feminist leadership 
  • Be part of a network united by a passion to end violence against women and girls 
  • Develop campaigning, communications and organising skills  
  • Use your own strength and passions. We’ll support you to use your existing skills to campaign for change. 
  • Fit in your community campaign activities around your life. We don’t ask for a huge or rigid time commitment, but you should actively take part into opportunities whenever you can.

Solidarity for me means recognising that although someone's circumstances can be different to our own, we still recognise the importance to stand up for each other
