Feb 2020 - April 2020

I had a 7 week internship (due to Corona 2 weeks less then originally planned) at akkanto. akkanto advises and collaborates with companies, organizations and governments in multiple communication disciplines. During my internship I had the opportunity to supervise multiple major projects. For example, I prepared and supervised a media training for a big client, made a social media plan for a client in the construction industry and created the press list for a press event, wrote the press release and pitched the event to potential interested journalists. 

Okt 2019 - Dec 2019

I helped Mediaraven VZW to develop a communication strategy around the Dokter Jules project. Through the Jules Bouts fund, the King Baudouin Foundation donates up to 2000 euro to youth movements that want to set up an action or project with added social value. By means of a good communication strategy, we tried to get as many youth movements as possible to submit their project.
