*PROGRAM OFFICER 
NEW YORK

The Open Society Institute (OSI) seeks a full-time Program Officer in its New York 
office for the International Harm Reduction Development Program (IHRD).  The Open 
Society Institute works to build vibrant and tolerant democracies whose governments 
are accountable to their citizens. Open societies are characterized by the rule of law; 
respect for human rights, minorities, and a diversity of opinions; democratically elected 
governments; market economies in which business and government are separate; and a 
civil society that helps keep government power in check.   To achieve its mission, OSI 
seeks to shape public policies that assure greater fairness in political, legal, and 
economic systems and safeguard fundamental rights. On a local level, OSI implements 
a range of initiatives to advance justice, education, public health, and independent 
media. At the same time, OSI builds alliances across borders and continents on issues

make the transition from communism. OSI has expanded the activities of the Soros 
foundations network to encompass the United States and more than 60 countries in 
Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Each national foundation relies on the 
expertise of boards composed of eminent citizens who determine individual agendas 
based on local priorities.  The Open Society Institute’s Public Health Program aims to

and justice.  Broadly, the program works with civil society organizations within two

policy and fostering greater government accountability and transparency through civil 
society monitoring efforts.  Program areas focus on addressing the human rights and 
health needs of marginalized groups, facilitating citizen access to health information,
