The Role:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The South East Asia (SEA) team works toward an end to the death penalty in the region. We do this through casework on individual strategic cases, which often entails engaging in in-depth investigations, and through political and public advocacy as appropriate. Our work is diverse and constantly evolving to respond to changes in the domestic and regional death penalty landscape. Our strategy is developed in close collaboration with our partners and fellows in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There has been significant change in the application of the death penalty in recent years, and harnessing this change and pushing for further reform, through individual cases and policy-focused projects, will be a significant part of the role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SEA Death Penalty Lead Lawyer is responsible for managing the SEA death penalty work and team, under the guidance of the Head of Death Penalty \u2013 Africa and South East Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
