The Aspen Institute Jobs

ABOUT US Aspen Institute The Aspen Institute is a global nonprofit organization committed to realizing a free, just, and equitable society. Since its founding in 1949, the Institute has been driving change through dialogue, leadership, and action to help solve the most critical challenges facing communities in the United States and around the world. Headquartered in Washington, DC, the Institute has a campus in Aspen, Colorado, and an international network of partners. Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion To achieve our mission of a more free, just, and equitable society, we commit to working proactively to advance the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion across our myriad endeavors such as the recruitment, compensation, training, and advancement of staff. The best people-serving institutions make this commitment, and we seek to be a leader in the ways that we do so and learn from others. Visit our website to learn more about our commitment and recent actions taken toward building and nurturing a diverse and inclusive environment. Religion and Society The Aspen Institute s Religion & Society Program (RSP) ignites change by convening, catalyzing, and researching the challenges and opportunities at the convergence of religion, culture, and justice. Its Faith Angle Forum on which the Senior Associate would work three-quarters time has been helping mainstream journalists better understand the broad, public impact of religion since 1999. RSP annually convenes 3-4 forums with 16-20 top US or European journalists to explore critical issues of political economy and society through the lens of religion and religious pluralism in conversation with premier scholars and clerics. While the role would primarily support our Faith Angle program, one-quarter of the Senior Associate s time would support the broader work of RSP. In addition to Faith Angle, RSP hosts three other initiatives: the Aspen Religion Fellows Program, a Racial Justice & Religion Program, and a Religion & Philanthropy initiative. All four programs support cultural leaders in understanding and fostering a healthier, equitable public pluralism through robust dialogue across religious traditions. Faith Angle convenings are far-removed from the daily pressures of newsrooms, inviting prominent journalists to join religious scholars in meaningful engagement at the intersection of religion and public life. Additionally, the program hosts a twice-monthly podcast that enables us to reach a wider audience eager to hear informed, in-depth conversations between a prominent religious scholar and leading journalist. Through in-person forums and via this digital content, our goal is to enhance dialogue and informal collaboration among cutting-edge journalists and religious thinkers, and ultimately to build a long-term, like-minded network that values religion s enduring role in shaping free societies. In so doing, journalists are invited to transcend a religion blind spot that can easily arise, by developing in-depth religious literacy in a diverse world. Over time, many journalists discern new ways to see religion always in the room in political elections, in better understanding racial justice, in navigating new technologies, and on a host of other issues. In its other three programs, RSP honors the ideal of equitable public pluralism basic equity and justice in public life, not a goal of one tribe achieving hegemonic cultural victory over others. Many scholars and clerics argue it is possible to hold deeply to the depth of one s own faith tradition while also embracing, learning alongside, and being sharpened by those who believe differently. Aspen Religion Fellows, our Racial Justice & Religion collective, our Religion & Philanthropy gatherings, and our Faith Angle convenings each set the table for engagement and mutual learning each in their own way building a dense, overlapping network of like-minded peers, and bridging ideological divides. The Senior Associate would support and help foster programming for some of the country s leading clerics, philanthropists, journalists, and civic leaders. ABOUT THIS ROLE The RSP Senior Associate will work 75 percent on Faith Angle Forum, and 25 percent on other Religion & Society Program Initiatives (including supporting convenings and other learning opportunities for Fellows, religious leaders, and philanthropists). The ideal candidate will closely with the Program Director and Deputy Director to support and help implement Faith Angle operations and strategy, and support RSP s broader work convenings, curricular support for Aspen Religion Fellows, and gatherings with leading philanthropists.
