Nacro
Journalist/ Media Expert for ambitious project to shift media narrative
Nacro are a key member of a coalition of justice organisations that are aiming to shift policy on criminal justice. Moving from a punitive, crisis-ridden system with money focused on prison and punishment to one that is more based on the evidence of what works, focusing on crime prevention, early intervention and community sentences rather than prison. This is an ambitious and far-reaching project which could radically change the way we view criminal justice in this country. One part of this is engaging the media and changing editorial policy. We are looking for a media expert, possibly a former or current journalist. Someone who knows how editorial policy is created, what the levers of change are behind the scenes, and how we can shift the narrative. We want someone to work with us to build a plan to change the media narrative on criminal justice as part of this bigger project.
In depth Project: 13-16 hours
