With offices in New York City, New York; Nairobi, Kenya; Bogota, Colombia; Geneva, Switzerland; and Washington, D.C., the Center is a non-profit, non-partisan organization changing law and policy throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the United States. Our 230+ diverse professionals are committed to advancing the Center\u2019s human rights mission through game-changing litigation, legal policy, and advocacy work. This has powered the Center\u2019s exceptional growth to an operating budget of over $50 million and won the respect of law firms in countries around the world, with an additional $29 million annually of donated legal services, representing the work of countless lawyers from more than 46 countries.\r\n\r\nThe Center\u2019s Strategic Plan sets a high mark for impact:<strong> By 2030, half of the world\u2019s population will be living under stronger protections for reproductive rights than they are today.<\/strong> The Center has a track record of success to back up this ambitious goal. Since our founding in 1992, the Center has transformed how reproductive rights are understood and applied by courts, governments, and human rights bodies worldwide on issues including maternal health, abortion, assisted reproduction, and adolescent sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We have won groundbreaking cases before national courts, U.N. Committees, and regional human rights bodies. Additionally, the Center has led the development of historic, proactive legislation advancing robust protections for reproductive rights and has built the legal capacity of women\u2019s rights advocates in more than 65 countries and counting.\r\n<h4><strong>The Role: <\/strong><\/h4>\r\nReporting to the Associate Director for Global Advocacy (Geneva), the Senior Global Advocacy Adviser will play an important role in supporting the work of the Global Advocacy team at the UN in Geneva and across key global initiatives of the department.
