Programme Officer (Fixed Term), Global Drug Policy Program. New York.

The Global Drug Policy Program (GDPP) of the Open Society Foundations seeks to shift the policy paradigm on illicit drugs from today’s punitive approach to one rooted in human rights, sustainable development, and public health.

The Program Officer is a pivotal role at Open Society. The role has responsibility for engaging with fields of interest to OSF, developing appropriate strategies and tools for fostering desired social change, while also developing and managing relationships with other entities including potential and current grantees.  The Program Officer works collaboratively both within OSF and with external entities whose goals are aligned with the Global Drug Policy Program.
