Dr Quincy R. Cloet is available for assignments as a freelance editor, proofreader and desktop publisher of special reports. At present, he supports the German-Southeast Asian Center of Excellence for Public Policy and Good Governance in the set-up of a new news and analysis platform called Europe in Review. The platform aims to serve as a reputable forum and valuable resource for academics, practitioners and the interested public alike. I help the editorial team in building a suitable website, editorial back office, manage information, and curating content.
Between August 2019 and June 2021, he worked as Managing Editor at Visegrad Insight, an English-language magazine published by the Res Publica Foundation in Warsaw. Visegrad Insight is the main platform of debate and analysis on Central Europe, which generates future policy directions for Europe from the region. He proofread article submissions, edited special reports and wrote weekly media round-ups for the website. Find his author profile and regular contributions here and our podcast recordings here.
