Livia Podestà

Cosmopolitan media expert - Serial dreamer - Ethical hedonist - Art lover - Gender Equality Activist

Italian PR professional in Stockholm working with soft diplomacy, nation branding and international media relations.

I am an idealist and I follow Alice Walker's example: "Activism is the rent I pay for living on this planet".

I believe in creating a better world, in socially sustainable development, gender equality, and diversity as enrichment.

I am the co-founder of the social media based initiative Servizio Uguaglianza (formerly called Equalisters Italia), a social service using the powerful dynamics of crowdsourcing to contribute to a more democratic, fair, and equal society.

I lecture around the world on sexism in media and advertisement and its negative impact on society, proposing a more equal creativity.
