Cultural Anthropology Insights
The work I do and the way I do it, rests on a solid Cultural Anthropological foundation. It is not just about pretty words, but about what words will connect and how they will travel when you stop talking. That is when the change happens.
My Etnographic fieldwork was a study of storytelling and narratives for social movement mobilization in the Brazilian 'movimiento negro'. It gave me theory and practical insights for change communication.

Before Ragnarok
Science tells us that we are standing at a defining moment in human history - we know what is coming, yet we fail to stop it. But history is full of catastrophes - averted and not. In this talk, we dive into the time just before the climate catastrophe of 536 AD - AKA the Fimbul Winter, Late Antiquity Little Ice Age, "The Worst Year To Be Alive", the Darkening of the Skies, the Great Famine etc.
What was it like, how did they adapt, and what can we learn?

Behind the curtain
Democracy and government politics is often veiled in myth and spin. Particularly when it comes to political speechwriting. This talk will take you behind the curtain back to the drawing board of political government speeches to get a climpse of what happens before the words are spoken and heard.
