As a national advocacy organization for First Nations, the AFN seeks to advance First Nations Inherent and Treaty Rights through the development policy, public education and where applicable, the co-development of legislation to build First Nations capacity.

The AFN was created out of a desire among First Nations leadership for a strong and effective collective advocacy organization. From this, values such as respect for human rights, diversity, justice, and the sovereignty of each rights-holding First Nation guide the work of the organization.

**The Role**:The Assembly of First Nations Rights and Governance sector is seeking an experienced and skilled individual to conduct research and provide analysis, advice and advocacy that reflects the AFN’s priorities with respect to First Nations Rights.

- Respond to inquiries and provide expert advice on Rights and Governance policy-related matters.
- Build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders in First Nations communities, educational institutions, and government officials.
- Stay informed about the latest developments with First Nations concerns.
