Description

Overview of The Day After:
The Day After (TDA) is an independent, Syrian-led civil society organization that supports a democratic transition in Syria. In August 2012, TDA completed work on a comprehensive approach to managing the challenges of a post-Assad transition in Syria. The Day After project brought together a group of Syrians representing a large spectrum of the Syrian opposition—including senior representatives of the Syrian National Council (SNC), members of the Local Coordination Committees in Syria (LCC), and unaffiliated opposition figures from inside Syria and the Diaspora representing all major political trends and components of Syrian society—to participate in an independent transition planning process.

The TDA report, “The Day After: Supporting a Democratic Transition in Syria”, provides a detailed framework of principles, goals, and recommendations from within the Syrian opposition for addressing challenges in six key fields: rule of law; transitional justice; security sector reform; constitutional design; electoral system design; and post-conflict social and economic reconstruction. TDA has since shifted its focus from transition planning to implementing the recommendations presented in the TDA report.

Job purpose:

The Public Relations Officer will serve as TDA’s primary liaison with Syrian institutions, civil society organizations, and relevant stakeholders. The role centers on strengthening institutional relationships, enhancing TDA’s public image, and ensuring the organization’s active presence and effective representation at meetings, conferences, and events.

The officer will represent TDA in various national and regional spaces, promoting its mission, programs, and values. By fostering constructive engagement and partnerships, the PR Officer will help expand TDA’s influence and credibility within the Syrian context and beyond. The position also supports coordination with program teams to align external engagements with TDA’s strategic priorities, ensuring that institutional relations contribute directly to the organization’s goals and impact.
