I am a journalist from Barcelona now based in Madrid with years experience in media and other roles involving communications. I have reported for several newspapers based in Barcelona (La Vanguardia, DiariARA) and for the pan-European news outlet Euronews. I can do reporting in Spanish, English and Catalan. Currently I in communications for an international non-profit in topics related to development and democracy promotion. I am available for work in Madrid and occasionally in Catalonia. I can offer expertise both in Spanish and Catalan current affairs. My preferred topics are social and economic issues, politics and technology. I also have a knack for European affairs, as I hold a Master's Degree in European Integration. In my latest role, I have worked in communications for the Division for Social Policy and Development at the United Nations Headquarters (New York). There I wrote articles in English, designed promo material and edited videos. As an individual curious by nature, I love traveling and meeting new people. That is why I participate in funded projects abroad where I meet like-minded journalists and credible sources. These include a video production workshop in Berlin, a radio training at the European Parliament, a conference at Yale University and a forum in Turkey. I continuously seek opportunities in international and European affairs, where I can work on journalism, communications, and policy. For more information, check my website: albertguaschrafael.com
