Looking for an Environmental Job in Hungary?

One of the most common questions I get is how to find an environmental or social justice/human rights job in Hungary and the region. If you do not speak the local language you will be offered exciting work as an English teacher or project proposal writer. While these jobs are important, you are probably looking for something a bit more on the activist side of things. Some resources to try:

- The Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe (REC) often has job openings, but more importantly, it has a fairly up-to-date database of all the NGOs in the region, with which you can narrow your search by country and specialties. http://www.rec.org/
- Greenfo.hu is the websiteof the Hungarian environmental journalists association. Follow this link for job openings

Nonprofit.hu also provides job listings here http://www.nonprofit.hu/allasok.html

 If you are still not having luck, you might have to resort to writing a project proposal for a local NGO and including yourself as project staff.
