Three careers in one person: many years in intl magazine journalism (Foreign Policy, profil- Austria etc), 3 years with diplomatic start-up team unter HR Solana in Kosovo (06-09 - independence process), and more than 5 years of building Europe program of Mercator Foundation (Germany). In parallel, opened my company European Commons in 2005 for innovative Europe work.
Today: I am a leading voice now on positive visions for EU future - one that harnesses cumulative potential and activates active and passive pro-Europeans rather than being fixated on loud voices from fringes. I advocate for multi-sectoral Foresight and Futures thinking and I am devising a Next Europe initiative (govts, private sector, NPO).
