Exhibition PAPER Breakthroughs

Paper technologies from across Europe address societal challenges, such as the circular economy and data security. How about WiFi-blocking paper, printed electronics or solar cell paper? Who would expect one of the oldest known materials to be on the threshold of technological breakthroughs? This theme is brought to life in the travelling exhibition and publication PAPER Breakthroughs.

The kick-off for the exhibition was at VTT Technical Research Centre in Helsinki, September 2015.

My role: co-organiser of the exhibition and author of the publication PAPER Breakthroughs

Partners: VTT Technical Research Centre in Helsinki and the Media Innovation Studio, University of Central Lancashire

CO2 Today

Publication of two books with inspiring and concrete energy and climate initiatives in Europe. Interviews with mayors and aldermen of the cities that signed the Covenant of Mayors (committed to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 40% by 2030). The participating cities set an example for European climate ambitions.

My role: initiator, author and publisher

Partner: Ministry of Spatial Planning and the Environment

Shell Storytelling

Years ago I was responsible for the content and process management of
Shell Storytelling. The human approach to science and innovation has been relevant in all my work ever since.

I researched and selected powerful stories on the topic of the energy challenge, social responsibility and environmental issues. This resulted in an online Storytelling repository for internal communication with over 140 stories told by employees.

The stories served many global purposes, including print advertising, events and presentations.

Schrijftraining (in Dutch only)

Effectief leren schrijven, met eenvoudige oefeningen en tools. Ik geef korte schrijftrainingen aan teams en individuen. Hierin kijken we kritisch naar de eigen schrijfstijl en manieren om teksten doelgericht uit te werken. Het eindresultaat kan meteen online of naar opdrachtgever.

Ik werkte samen met o.a. promovendi en de communicatie-afdeling van een corporate.
