Visual Communication as a bridge between cultures

A product a research-based thesis

Thesis project description

The thesis topic is flexiible but the main areas of interest are related to: visual communication with transnational relevance; working with gender, diversity, education, society and/or the environment.

The thesis may take the form of a product (video, film, other content) or can be structured as a research paper.

Managerial value of the research

This thesis will bring a better understanding of interculturality and intersectionality when working within communications or marketing, especially in international context.

Research topic motivation

After a recent internship as a Communications Assistant in an NGO which worked with documentary films, I discovered a passion for editing and creating video and other visual content. As my ultimate career goal is working within the area of human rights, equality, sustainability or other development goals, I consider combining my personal motivations, my extensive knowledge in intercultural studies and my recently-gained experience from working in communications to be a great opportunity for me to continue to grow my skills and competences.

Why collaborate with us

Along with my intercultural knowledge, I bring to the table a second Master's in Communication for Development and a Bachelor's in Economics. I am a highly adaptive and flexible individual, with a can-do attitude. I am constantly working on growing my professional skills and network, and am determined to follow through on my ambitions. Ultimately, I aspire for this thesis to be an asset for me following my graduation and give me an upper hand when pursuing my future endeavours.
