The Funky Citizens team

President, NGO member with over 10 years of experience, coordinator and binder of the entire team, poster for civic involvement and founding member of the association.

Launched the communication department. Doesn't like being labeled an NGOist. Strategy, creation and PR, Perpetually busy (but approachable). He does like it.

I'm civically fit before ending up at FC but, since November 2016, i'm officially a a funky citizen. I initially worked solely on the fact-checking project Factual, where I felt at home because I don't like believing without searching.

For 6 years, she has been doing projects for youth on topics such as civic involvement, student rights, disadvantaged areas and gender equality. She started in communication and now does a little bit of everything – technical, research, budgets. Likes the idea of civically fit and that's probably not going to change. Plans to make democracy cool again.

Works with youth and likes to get involved in the community to bring a funky touch. Campaigner for democratic values, civic education and IT responsibility. Helps us fight all the beasts of misinformation in social media and beyond.

Feminist activist, Oana has been active in the NGO sector since 2019 and has worked mainly in educational projects dedicated to young people and promoting gender equality through advocacy campaigns. At Funky, she works on projects related to combating disinformation, where it helps that she can look at the phenomenon through a sociological lens and her previous experience as a fact-checker at Factual helps her.

Passionate about communication. Likes to know what public money is spent on and what we get in return. Loves working with data and turning it into simple visualizations and explanations that everyone can understand. 

Johnny, by his nickname, photographer by trade, quickly realised that it's not enough to just snap the shutter today and is now learning and relearning digital communication to become a multitasking individual.

I'm Diana, but my name is Dianné (with an accent on the e). I am passionate about communication, in all its forms. I studied communication sciences but also audio-video multimedia production. I think social media can bring people a deeper perspective of what's going on around us, especially if we get our information from the right sources. That's how I ended up on Planet Funky.

Has a strange passion for bureaucracy, he likes Romanian movies and diversity. He makes sure we have the books straight and he keeps our funky things in order.
