VOLUMES

VOLUMES is a global innovation laboratory committed to supporting the emergence of local ecosystems for positive impact through research, consulting and training in the field of social innovation, circular economy, sustainable food and digital fabrication.

Started in 2015 as the first prototype of Creative and Productive Hub in Paris, Volumes has hosted some of the most vibrant communities of the Parisian social innovation scene and powered a number of initiatives that grew out into independent organizations, including one of the first Foodlab in Europe, a Makerspace, the Fab City Grand Paris initiative and the cooperative Oasis 21.

Volumes is involved in several research projects and runs a number of educational programs, while supporting and consulting different public and private organizations through Europe.

Associate Managing Director

CivicWise

CivicWise is an international distributed and open network that promotes citizen engagement, developing concrete actions and projects based on collective intelligence, civic innovation and open design.

I co-founded CivicWise during a London residency to promote collaborative urbanism and civic
engagement with simultaneous international and local dimensions. The organisation's objective is to
facilitate knowledge exchange at a global level that promotes activities in local contexts, and it is
based on a model of distributed governance, where projects are developed locally by independent
local nodes.

Instigator and Co-founder

A non extractive alternative to the current vacation rental platforms, that works to connect conscious travelers with fair hosts to promote stronger, more sustainable and equitable communities around the world.

I was in charge of coordinating the actions that will allow the fairbnb.coop alternative platform to operate in direct connection with the local communities, while respecting the right to housing and generating circular economy processes.

My work was focused on generating an innovative connection between the digital platform and the local communities including citizens, hosts and local administrations. One of my main responsibilities was the management of the team in charge of the relationship with the ambassadors and the local administrations.

ASSOCIAZIONE PUNTA STILO

Consulente marketing

Greenpower snc

Social media manager

Vengo da anni di ricerca - filosofica -  nel campo della comunicazione e di impegno nella promozione culturale e sociale nel mio territorio di origine, la Calabria, che non è certo ricco di occasioni in tal senso. Ho realizzato, lavorandovi anche come docente, progetti formativi di cinema, filosofia ed educazione ambientale per le scuole primarie e secondarie e per diverse associazioni - studi filosofici, promozione territoriale, A.S.D., fundraising - in cui ho anche avuto ruoli di gestione. 
L'esperienza maturata nel social marketing per PMI e nella gestione di brand con finalità sociali è convogliata in LOGOS, la mia attuale attività di comunicazione, marketing e management, orientata dalla ferma convinzione che le sfide del mercato possano sempre essere affrontate attivamente, promuovendo il business con la cultura della comunicazione, delle immagini e delle relazioni.  
Lungo il mio percorso ho affinato la mia capacità di riconoscere il potenziale delle realtà e delle persone che incontro; il mio lavoro oggi consiste nel capire come creare valore da quel potenziale, usando strategia, creatività, sinergia. Ho esperienza nella gestione di gruppi e nel lavoro per obiettivi, al contempo arricchisco costantemente la mia formazione perché ho capito che una buona idea è niente senza una buonissima esecuzione.

Sostanzialmente mi diverto a fare quello che faccio: non deve sembrare paradossale che proprio grazie alla filosofia ho capito che il mercato è il luogo dove tutte le grandi contraddizioni umane sono in gioco, ma anche tutte le grandi capacità e i valori che ci definiscono in quanto uomini - il pensiero, l'immaginazione, la solidarietà - trovano lì un autentico campo di prova. 
Mi diletto con la grafica digitale e con il montaggio video. 
Infine, mi piace scrivere: ho sperimentato questa passione principalmente nella ricerca filosofica e nella critica cinematografica. Sono appassionata di problem solving, trekking, filosofia tedesca, letteratura russa e sudamericana, serie tv e cinema, quasi tutto il cinema, in particolare il documentario.
