Florian supports ICANs work in Nuclear Umbrella states and works with partner organisations across the world. His work centers around leveraging political processes and extending the support for the TPNW in countries whose governments are not yet supportive of the treaty. As such, he focuses on strengthening the ICAN Parliamentary Pledge and the ICAN Cities Appeal and ensuring good relationships with parliamentarians and civil-society organisations. Florian has been a key contributor to our advocacy strategies, actively engaging in media interviews, public speaking and political outreach.
Florian studied International Relations & Management in Regensburg and holds an MA in Public Policy from King's College London as well as an MA in Political Data Journalism from the University of Zurich. His academic background allows him to analyse complex statistical models and effectively communicate data-driven insights. His professional experience includes internships and consultancies including at the European Commission, the German Ministry for Development Cooperation and Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung.
