*Description:*

The Center for Liberty in the Middle East (CLIME) is now hiring library 
science interns or volunteer workers. The successful candidate will work 
either remotely or from our Washington, D.C. office to manage our online 
human rights library in Persian and English. This is a great opportunity 
to gain exposure to Middle East policymaking and research in Washington, 
and to work with a network of leading human rights and democracy 
activists from Washington and the broader Middle East.

CLIME is a Washington, D.C. based, non-profit initiative to support 
individuals and groups in the Middle East that are working for 
democratic values of liberty and tolerance. Many of these “voices of 
liberty” are largely unseen and unknown, not only in the United States 
and Europe but also within their own societies. They face a combination 
of heavy government censorship, language barriers and a lack of 
financial resources. By supporting and spreading their work, CLIME aims 
to promote peaceful transitions in the region to political systems that 
rest on the pillars of representative government, rule of law, 
separation of powers, individual rights, economic opportunity, and 
respect for ethnic, religious and political diversity.

- Managing online library in Persian and English
