Alessia Giorgiutti

Communications & Membership Lead - Just Transition Co-coordinator

Alessia joined POLIS in April 2019.

She coordinates POLIS' corporate internal and external communications, leads on POLIS’ brand and visual identity, and is the Editor in chief of POLIS’ Cities in motion magazine. Additionally, she oversees and supports membership activities, working closely with the Membership and Communications Manager, Jonathan de Vriendt.

She also co-coordinates the Just Transition Taskforce with Laura Babío.

In her previous years at POLIS, Alessia was involved in several EU-funded projects, such as e-smartec, ReVeALiDREAMS, and the Urban Transports Community. She also managed communications for REFORM I, contributed to projects ISAAC IIGrowSmarter, and SUMPS-UP, and coordinated communications for the first-ever Urbanism Next Europe edition in 2021. Drawing from these experiences, she supports other staff members within her current role as Communications Lead by providing strategic advice and guidance in tasks related to content production and communication.

Alessia holds a BA in International Relations and Diplomacy and has worked in the field of communication and media production in Italy, Finland, the UK, and the USA. Notably, she has worked as an External Communication Advisor for an international consultancy involved with the EC on the Eastern European Partnership, for which she contributed to the #EUNeighboursEast and #EU4Energy campaigns.

You can contact her in English and Italian – but also feel free to test her in German or French. She understands Spanish, too.
