Pavlina Kvapilova worked for public service media for almost two decades. She held various positions in both domestic and foreign news coverage. Apart from other things, she worked as a foreign correspondent in Brussels; on Czech Public TV she was the head of the “Udalosti, komentare” programme team; she co-created the interactive programme Hyde Park CT24. Most recently she was the manager of the New Media division, from which she was dismissed last year following a public dispute over the case of Daniela Drtinova and Czech Public TV's way of news coverage. At the time being, Kvapilova is a freelancer. She still considers journalism crucial - she wants to seek new models based on the renaissance of journalism. She is also engaged in writing, hosting, training, and consulting; she organizes community events and loves meditating through calligraphy. She tries to invest her time in what she finds meaningful. She believes that grass-root activities bring new fresh energy into society and she wants to support this trend with what she does.
