Our nonprofit, which works on protecting people from risks posed by emerging technologies is launching a new website on Wix. We are looking for a volunteer who can help us get the website over the finish line before the end of July. In particular, we are looking for someone comfortable with Wix who has experience setting up, customizing, and testing donations on the platform, and who has a flexible schedule over the next 2-3 weeks. The role would largely focus on the donation page, but we'd also appreciate support with finalizing the rest of the website if possible. Importantly, the work would all be done in July, starting the week of July 14, since the website needs to launch before August 1. So this role would only last for 2-3 weeks.

We are in a difficult financial situation right now, as many nonprofits are, and the new website will help us fundraise and get new donors who can help us scale up our impact and ensure that emerging technologies are used to safeguard human rights rather than abuse them!

The site has been built by two fabulous Taproot volunteers, one of whom has to step away from the project due to time constraints. We have weekly meetings and are regularly in touch, and we have a Figma map of the website that we are building from. Everything is largely in place, we just need to finalize things by building a few last components, making sure the entire site is responsive, testing links, etc.

Organization Mission

The Neurorights Foundation promotes innovation, protects human rights, and ensures the ethical development of neurotechnology (devices capable of monitoring or manipulating brain activity). The Neurorights Foundation is committed to unlocking the future of brain science and innovation, a future where neurotechnology is leveraged for social good and safeguarded from abuse. We focus on five key areas of impact: 1. Governance: Setting Standards and Safeguarding the Space The Neurorights Foundation plays a leading role in establishing policy frameworks and governance models for the rapidly evolving neurotechnology industry. We work closely with global policymakers, regulators, and industry leaders to define the rights at stake, clarify the science, and develop narrowly tailored legal standards to ensure that ensure neurotechnologies are developed and used responsibly. By prioritizing accountability and transparency, we protect both the public and the potential of this transformative field, safeguarding individual rights and societal well-being while growing public trust in consumer neurotechnologies. 2. Expert Consultations: Guiding Responsible Innovation Our team of neuroscientists, lawyers, and human rights specialists provides expert consultations to governments, companies, and organizations working in the neurotechnology space. The Neurorights Foundation offers guidance on a range of areas, including responsible innovation, human rights and ethics, international advocacy efforts, legislative strategies, and the current and future impacts of emerging technologies. Whether it’s designing privacy policies, drafting laws, ensuring compliance with new regulations, or scenario planning for the future, our team collaborates with key stakeholders to guide industry practice and inform government policy so that innovation can safely flourish. 3. Public Education: Empowering Informed Decision Making The future of neurotechnology should be shaped by neurotechnology users, and by everyone who will inherit the world that brain science is quickly transforming. Through educational initiatives, public outreach, media engagement, and thought leadership, the Neurorights Foundation works to demystify the neurotechnology landscape and promote public participation in the governance and commercialization of neurotechnologies. Our team convenes global experts and fosters open dialogue to ensure that all individuals have access to clear, accurate, and accessible information that allows meaningful participation and complete understandings of the possibilities and risks associated with emerging neurotechnologies. 4. Research: Illuminating the Scientific, Legal, and Social Dimensions of Neurotechnologies The Neurorights Foundation is dedicated to understanding the profound implications of brain science and innovation on society. With a team of top minds in science, law, and policy, we conduct cutting edge research at the intersection of neurotechnology, society, and the future of the brain. Our research seeks to understand and anticipate the vast potential of emerging neurotechnologies, while building an evidence base from which to proactively respond to the legal and societal implications they present. Through original research studies, legal analyses, and compilations of relevant scientific breakthroughs, we identify the opportunities and challenges of neurotechnological innovations, mapping the transformative potential of brain science and keeping the public abreast of emerging trends and developments. 5. Non-Discrimination, Equity, and Access: Ensuring Fair Access to Neurotechnologies As neurotechnology evolves, it is crucial that it is developed with fairness in mind, and that its benefits are distributed equitably. The Neurorights Foundation is committed to ensuring that all people—regardless of background, ability, identity, or socio-economic status—have access to neurotechnologies capable of improving their quality of life, and that emerging technologies do not reinforce social disparities. We advocate for inclusive policies, research funding, and initiatives that reduce inequalities, while addressing ethical concerns related to access, affordability, and discriminatory design. The Neurorights Foundation seeks to make neurotechnology a tool for unity, understanding, and progress, not division and disparity.
