Supervised by Dr. Fabio Votta and Dr. Simon Kruschinski - RedacteurOmroep HumanAug 2025 - Current (1 year 3 months)Als redacteur bij HUMAN werk ik aan de online strategie van de programma’s Wat Houdt Ons Tegen? en Metropolis.
Wat Houdt Ons Tegen?, gepresenteerd door schrijver en onderzoeksjournalist Jeroen Smit samen met klimaatjournalisten Daphné Dupont-Nivet en Jan van Poppel, onderzoekt waarom de verduurzaming in Nederland stokt en wie daar verandering in brengt.
Metropolis is een internationale documentaireserie waarin correspondenten wereldwijd laten zien hoe mensen in verschillende culturen omgaan met universele thema’s als klimaat, ongelijkheid en identiteit.
