Project
During my stay at Faber I will collaborate in a collective project with the aim of creating a network of narrative journalism. I will also participate as a speaker in a round table discussion with the finalists of the UAB-MECOPH Literary Journalism Prize. I will also have the opportunity to visit primary and secondary schools to offer creative writing workshops and seminars on the construction of the story in journalistic reporting. Faber Residency gives me the opportunity to develop a new project of narrative journalism that is still in its infancy.
