  Do Min Do - To change or not to changeAn independent multimedia documentary on people's call for democracy in Cambodia
• Advocacy Video / Niger's Humanitarian OverviewThe video was filmed and edited in December 2019 during the visit of the UN Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Ursula Mueller to Niger and features several humanitarian hotspots in the regions of Diffa, Tahoua, Tillabery and Maradi. The film aimed to raise awareness on the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Niger.
• Participatory Video Project / A question on artistic freedomThis project included a short film and an interactive documentary. I wrote and produced this project in 2018 during my service as Communication and Knowledge Management Specialist at UNESCO. The project aimed to mobilize the international debate on freedom of artistic expression through a participative question and answer process confronting policy makers, artists and cultural actors from different countries and backgrounds.
• Promo, Animation / Super VolunteerAn animated short video I wrote, edited and produced to promote EU Voluntary Service in 2010. The video was made entirely in Photoshop and Adobe Premiere by cutting and animating photos of famous paintings. The video won several awards and was broadcasted on the Italian National Television.
• Digital Artwork series / Pathways of knowledgeThese artworks were commissioned to me by M. Luigi Greca, president of Ascot Industrial, an international company of power generators and power plants. The concept of the series was to investigate the complex nature of the human quest for knowledge.
• Web&UI Development / UNESCO Creativity Knowledge Management SystemAs soon as I joined the UNESCO's Division for Diversity of Cultural Expression, I passed under review their communication and knowledge management platforms and prepared a report on the limits of the tools they were using and on the interventions to be taken within the opportunities and the challenges of working within the organisation's global standards, which were at that time, under a slow and under-funded restructuring process.
