Campaigners

Campaigner — Fair Start Movement

At Fair Start Movement, a Campaigner is a change-maker and community voice. Campaigners help bring the movement’s vision of intergenerational justice, child equity, and eco-social sustainability to life by connecting with people, telling honest stories, and encouraging collective action that leads to lasting change.

This role is ideal for people who believe that children’s rights, family planning, environmental justice, and democracy are deeply connected—and who want to help others see and act on those connections.

Role Overview

Campaigners are the heart of Fair Start’s public engagement. They work at the grassroots level—listening, learning, sharing, and mobilizing—to help communities understand how today policies affects children, families, and future generations.

Rather than working behind closed doors, Campaigners help translate Fair Start’s ideas into conversations, campaigns, and actions that people can relate to and participate in. This is a role rooted in trust, collaboration, and courage.
