The Project
With Your Own Voice was a 2-year European Union funded project bringing together 6 partner organisations across Spain, Greece, Italy and Portugal — with the shared goal of amplifying underrepresented voices through participatory communication methodologies.
My role covered the full communications lifecycle: strategy, coordination, reporting, training and digital presence.
Scope & Responsibilities
Partner coordination: Managed ongoing communication and alignment across 24 partner representatives from 6 organisations in 4 countries — in English and Spanish. Coordinating across time zones, institutional cultures and funding requirements demanded both precision and adaptability.
KPI reporting & EU compliance: Designed and maintained the project’s KPI tracking framework across all activity areas. Consolidated multi-source data into structured Excel reporting for quarterly submissions to the funding agency — translating complex programme activity into the metrics and narrative format required by EU reporting standards.
Workshop facilitation: Designed and delivered training sessions for 100+ participants across partner countries, with a team of 5 facilitators. Sessions focused on participatory communication, voice and self-representation.
Web development & content: Built and maintained the project website in WordPress — responsible for information architecture, content strategy and multilingual content management throughout the 2-year programme.
Narrative & documentation: Wrote all justification reports, activity summaries and stakeholder communications — ensuring that the project’s impact was communicated clearly to both funding bodies and public audiences.
What This Project Demonstrates
With Your Own Voice is evidence of what communications strategy looks like at scale — not campaigns, but sustained coordination across institutions, languages and reporting requirements over two years.
It also illustrates a core part of my professional approach: data without narrative doesn’t drive decisions, and narrative without data doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. Every report submitted to the funding agency had to balance both — and so did every workshop, every stakeholder update, and every page of the website.
