SOUTHEAST ASIA
RECRUITMENT PACK
Greenpeace, one of the world’s most respected and dynamic organizations, is an
international non-profit global campaigning organization that acts to ensure the ability
of Earth to nurture life in all its diversity. At the heart of Greenpeace’s campaigns is the
tradition of non-violent, direct action against environmental abuse and destruction.
Greenpeace exists because this fragile earth deserves a voice. It needs solutions. It
needs change. It needs action.
Greenpeace acts to change attitudes and behavior, to protect and conserve the
environment and to promote peace by:
Catalyzing an energy revolution to address the number one threat facing our
planet: climate change.
Defending our oceans by challenging wasteful and destructive fishing, and
creating a global network of marine reserves.
Protecting the world's ancient forests and the animals, plants and people that
depend on them.
Creating a toxic free future with safer alternatives to hazardous chemicals in
today's products and manufacturing.
Campaigning for sustainable agriculture by rejecting genetically engineered
organisms, protecting biodiversity and encouraging socially responsible farming.
Greenpeace is present in 40 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and the
Pacific.
To maintain our independence, Greenpeace does not accept donations from
governments or corporations but relies on contributions from individual supporters and
foundation grants.
For over 40 years, Greenpeace has been successful in our campaigns to reverse
environmental degradation by bearing witness to environmental destruction and
exposing and confronting environmental abuse. Greenpeace campaigns have been vital
in informing government policies on the environment and effecting changes in business
practices which lead to various environmental problems.
Greenpeace in Southeast Asia
Greenpeace opened our first office in Southeast Asia in 2000. In that time we have led
successful campaigns throughout the region, securing fresher air, cleaner water and a
healthier environment through changing industry practices and government policies.
Greenpeace actively campaigns across the region to catalyze an energy revolution,
protect ancient forests and our oceans, create a toxics-free future and create a shift to
sustainable agriculture.
Greenpeace has three offices in Southeast Asia (GPSEA) —in Thailand, Indonesia and
the Philippines and each office is currently composed of six departments: Campaigns,
Fundraising, Communications, Mass Mobilization (all under Programme), Human
Resources and Organizational Support (under Operations). Currently, Greenpeace
Southeast Asia employs nearly 200 staff across the region, excluding the direct dialogue
fundraisers.
