Victoria Silva Sánchez
Journalist & Advocacy Professional | EU & MENA | Strategic Communications & Campaigns

I am a journalist and advocacy professional with over nine years of experience in strategic communications, multi-stakeholder coordination, and EU-funded programmes, specialising in the Euro-Mediterranean region, human rights, peacebuilding, and children & youth advocacy.

I translate research, field insights, and community perspectives into compelling stories and evidence-based advocacy that informs policy, mobilises support, and strengthens public engagement. I have worked across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, collaborating with NGOs, EU institutions, and civil society networks to deliver impact at local, regional, and EU levels.

Key Areas of Expertise:

• Project cycle management, multi-country campaigns, and advocacy strategy
• Digital communications, social media, content creation (Canva, Adobe, video/audio)
• Stakeholder engagement, coalition-building, and community facilitation
• Journalism, research, and policy analysis (EU institutions, MENA, Red Sea region)
• Children, youth, and women’s rights advocacy

Languages: Spanish (native), English (C2), French (C1), Arabic (B1)

I aim to bridge the gap between evidence and action, amplifying the voices of communities and translating complex issues into accessible narratives for policy-makers, media, and the public.
