RUN FOR IT seeks to change the problems with politics. We want to help young community leaders and people from historically marginalised communities enter the democracy and set a new agenda. We want to encourage and support energetic and bold young people to run strategic and successful campaigns to create a better kind of politics in Australia.
Climate and Environmental Justice
We fight for climate action by pursuing zero emission policies, opposing the influence of the fossil fuel industry and centring people who are most affected by climate impacts.
Economic Justice
Everyone has the right to dignity, security and the ability to meet their needs. No one should live in poverty. We oppose policies that put public goods in private hands and we fight for universal services that give everyone a chance at a fulfilling and healthy life.
Social Justice
We believe that opportunities, and privileges should be fairly distributed within a society. No person should be treated differently based on their race, background, gender, sexuality, able-bodiedness or class. We will be actively anti-racist and work to dismantle systems of oppression.
We envision a world where politics accurately represents young people and takes the needs and concerns of young people seriously. Where young people face no barriers to engaging in politics and feel comfortable speaking up for what they believe in.
A type of politics where young people are inspired by their peers in politics and the real concerns of young people are addressed and responded to.

As a Campaigner, you will help create a supportive network for the candidates, find them resources, volunteers, engage with the media and reach out to community groups.
The time commitment varies overtime, and may start as one day per week, closer to elections increasing to multiple days or regular contact with candidates and networks. However, this depends on the size of your team. As a lead in your state, you can recruit more volunteers to support you and reduce the load (we actually would greatly recommend this, the work would be a lot for one or two people).
We are looking for 2 Lead Campaigners based anywhere in NSW to grow our statewide movement!
If you think you would be a good fit, definitely apply! We need as much help as we can get and there is a place for everyone in this movement!
If you have any questions, send an email to [email protected], using the subject line: NSW Campaigners x2 (Voluntary Position) - Flexible Location NSW enquiry via EthicalJobs.
Applications for this role will take you to the employer’s site.
