Evelyn Schubert —
Communications Strategist & Creative Director
I am a Berlin-based Creative Director, writer, and communications strategist with a passion for crafting narratives that constructively shape our society. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with non-profits, NGOs, and mission-driven organizations to amplify their voices on issues such as social and environmental sustainability, equity and justice, political participation, and education.
Most recently, I led Communications & Marketing at the Falling Walls Foundation for the Creative Bureaucracy Festival — the largest festival for public sector innovation. Before that, I was Creative Director and CEO of werk21 Kommunikation, where I led strategic communications and integrated campaigns for NGOs, foundations, and political actors on issues including human rights, remembrance culture, sustainability, and education.
My experience stems from a diverse background in visual communication, storytelling, visual arts, photography, philosophy, and computer science.
My personal philosophy revolves around the transformative power of storytelling. I see stories not just as narratives, but as catalysts capable of reshaping our world.
