Background

About Giulia Bondi

I am an Italian journalist, writer and videomaker. Since 2017 I work for RAI, Italian public television. I have worked as a freelance journalist since 2005. I also worked as a public information officer (Ufficio stampa del Comune di Modena, Italy) and in local tv. My work consists in finding interesting stories, propose and realize reportages either through words, pictures or video. I worked in difficult contexts like Former Yugoslavia; I travelled as a journalist through Italy and abroad (Greece, Iceland, Spain, Kosovo, Madagascar, Ethiopia, Saharawi refugee camps). I am able to manage tight schedules and deadlines, a skill I developed not only in journalistic work but also in previous jobs, organising big events and working with the public. I attended several courses and workshops on documentary, reportage and journalism. I like working in team and learning from other people's ideas and experiences. In 2006 I won, together with colleagues Massimo Gnone, Claudia Ribet and Luca Rosini, Youth prize at Ilaria Alpi journalistic television prize with the reportage “Diversi sguardi olimpici”. In 2008 I won the scolarship "Journalists between peace and war" which brought me to Kosovo to realise reportages. I am author and coordinator of participatory video and reportage workshops with young people and students. I wrote on national magazines (Terre di mezzo, L'Espresso, Peacereporter.net). I published four books and I worked for Rai – Italian public televison. I graduated in 2001 in Economic and social sciences at Commercial University Luigi Bocconi in Milan. I speak fluent English, good Portuguese and French, basic Spanish and Serbo-Croatian. In the last few years I dedicated myself to slow and ecological travelling: by bicycle in Italy and Europe, on foot in central Italy mountains or in the Alps, as a great way to meet people, find stories and understand territories and communities.
