RedefySG is a non-profit teen journalism organisation. We seek to provide youths in Singapore a platform to voice out on social affairs. As a young organisation, RedefySG is looking for teenagers to join us as writers. 

Vision
RedefySG is a branch journalism organisation of Redefy, an international youth organisation. 

• A platform to voice out

Discrimination and injustice are increasingly defining the society we live in.  RedefySG serves as an outlet for us to speak out against ignorance, to empower the marginalised, to hold those in power accountable for their actions.
 

•  Founded by teens

We are a diverse group of teenagers who are passionate about social issues. It is imperative that teens’ opinions are considered in today’s public discourse in order for teens’ needs to be understood as well as for teens to act as future agents of change. Top-down changes tend to benefit the privileged and powerful, hence teens have a responsibility to initiate bottom-up changes that benefit all of us.
 

• For all Singaporeans

Journalism is the cornerstone of modern society and a pillar upholding democracy. Yet, the occurrence of state-regulated media in Singapore is antithetical to the core value of journalism: freedom. Through quality journalism, RedefySG aims to contribute unspoken topics to the dialogue. 
​
Roles and Responsibilities
From identifying pertinent social issues for our Content Writers to explore, to polishing drafts of writing pieces, we are looking for writers with keen eyes with details and a strong grasp with the English language. Editorial Managers are tasked with the important responsibility of setting the tone of our publications as well as establishing consistency. Hence, we would greatly appreciate it if you could be flexible with your time to accommodate our publishing schedule. You can also choose to concurrently be a Content Writer. ​

If you are interested in any of the positions above, please fill out this short survey. Alternatively, contact <redefysg@gmail.com> and <info@expatgiving.org>​ for any questions you have.
