The Resolution Institute is a non-profit organization seeking someone who is concerned with promoting peace, environmental sustainability, and global human rights.
What We Offer
This unique position consists of 12 working hours per week in exchange for rent-free housing in a large Colonial Revival house in midtown Sacramento. This five-bedroom house is home to the three members of the non-profit group. We are looking for our fourth colleague to live with us collaboratively in a friendly household atmosphere.
Who We Are
The Institute is focused on providing tools that will enable humanity to address and resolve world problems at local levels. These tools are compromised of: 1) a web-based, data-management software system, which uses data to identify world/local problems, and 2) a set of communication skills, which will enable people to collaboratively resolve these problems.
Current projects of the Institute are focused on promoting awareness and enthusiasm for the Institute’s goals. These initial projects include writing a book and creating media clips. A future project will be a school-at-sea program on the Norwegian tall ship Sorlandet to teach future leaders the systematic approach to resolving world problems, and to publicize the resolution process through a nine-month voyage.
Who We Seek
The skills we need to round out our team relate to web-based software applications and video production, including camera, sound and editing. We are also looking for sufficient IT experience to work on importing data from other web sources into the Institute software system. Finally, since the writing of a book is one of the initial objectives, a creative writer with the ability to relate complicated concepts in an engaging way, would be a major asset to the team.
Our ideal candidate is someone who employs a positive outlook and works well in a team environment as a facilitator, contributor, and listener. In addition, we seek someone who is creative, self-directed, and an independent worker. Good communication skills and a high level of professionalism are a must.
