This blog is written by me, Timo Lüge.
I’m a communications professional with a long history in broadcast, print and online media.
After working as a journalist for eight years, I worked for the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement for four years.
- From 2007 to the end of 2010 I was responsible for the online and social media activities of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, went to Haiti as a spokesperson after the 2010 earthquake and occasionally coordinated the organization’s public communication as deputy manager of the media unit.
- In 2011 I worked as protection delegate for the International Committee of the Red Cross in rural Liberia.
- Presently I am a self-employed, independent communications expert who is helping humanitarian organizations and NGOs to solve their information management and communications challenges, including the effective use of social media.
Communication, information and discovering how the two can be used to improve the world we live in, is a passion of mine. I’m using this blog to share problems and solutions, to think out loud and to hear from others what they think about the topics that I find interesting.
I hope you enjoy this blog.
