I like writing and I’ve got the opportunity to make some experiences throughout my school years. As part of an internship program, during my bachelor’s, I was an editorial assistant at Centro Study Politeia, Università Degli Studi di Milano. I’m now one of the editors and the current chair of the CoBra Network Research Blog and one of the editors at Echoraffiche. Echoraffiche is an Italian slow-journalism online magazine and cultural organisation based in Brescia, my hometown. We are committed to valuing the local roots of our project, keeping an eye on and being inspired by what happens at the national and global levels.

Here are some selected pieces:

English

• Data Visualisation: what should we learn from accessibility and data journalism. 2021. CoBra Blog.
• Taking time to read and write as a radical act of love for research. 2022. CoBra Blog.

Italian

• Usare la scienza come strumento politico. 2021. Echoraffiche.
• Gender data gap ed essenzialismo, cosa evitare per far fronte comune. 2021. Echoraffiche.
• Ripensare il lavoro: di come il tempo è spazio di potere, e di come farlo nostro. 2022. Echoraffiche.

I also enjoy creating spaces for young researchers and writers by organising small-scale events, both in and outside Academia.
