About The Sentinel by YuvoiceThe Sentinel by Yuvoice is a global media nonprofit (501(c)(3)) and the beating heart of citizen journalism. We publish award-winning stories from real people worldwide, breaking news, community stories, mental health journeys, career truths, and fiction and poetry that reflect the world we live in.
Our mission is explicit: to surface truth with care, center lived experience, and mobilize communities toward practical change, so readers don't just know more, they can do more. We believe that journalism isn't the exclusive domain of large newsrooms. Stories live in every neighborhood, in every language, in every community. We exist to surface them.
Toward this mission, we are building a global network of 1,000+ volunteer citizen journalists who report from communities around the world, and we are looking for passionate, ethical, and curious individuals to join us.
Position SummaryThe Staff Editor & Writer is a hands-on, dual-purpose volunteer editorial role sitting within The Sentinel’s regional journalism structure.



This person does two things exceptionally well: they write original journalism, and they edit the submissions of Citizen Journalist contributors so that every story published from the region meets The Sentinel’s standards of accuracy, clarity, and public interest.

This role reports directly to the Director of Regional Journalism and is the primary editorial point of contact for citizen journalists (CJs) submitting work for publication. The Staff Editor & Writer is not a manager or community coordinator — it is a working editorial role for someone who loves both the craft of writing and the challenge of making other people’s writing better.

This role is for you if: You are energised by a blank page and a deadline. You feel genuine satisfaction when a rough submission becomes a publishable story. You care about quality — not as an abstract standard, but as a responsibility to readers and to the communities being written about.
