Dario holds a Master’s in International Relations from the Hertie School in Berlin and is one of the co-founders of the youth-led international relations think tank RAIA, where he has been actively involved for the past seven years and has served as Managing Director for the last four.

RAIA is a youth-focused global think tank dedicated to making international affairs more accessible by simplifying complex ideas, using visual storytelling, and exploring leaders’ motives without fueling division. 

Currently based in Berlin, Dario shares why he started RAIA, discusses his latest venture, the podcast The Western Bubble, co-founded with his former Professor Balder Hageraats, and reflects on his career journey so far. 

We hope you enjoy this conversation with a passionate international relations specialist and youth organization leader.
