Václav Pláteník

In less than a decade, Václav has gone from being a volunteer on a regional election campaign in the Czech Republic to becoming the spokesman for one of the country’s oldest parties. In the Czech Republic, he managed the efforts of the Christian Democrats, then a key part of the country’s governing coalition, where he helped develop communication and research operations. In some cases these were  tools his party was using for the first time. Václav was a vital part of the international team at British consultancy BTP Advisers, where he led campaigns and trainings from Europe to Africa. Now he works as a Senior Policy Officer at the Embassy of the Netherlands in Prague, decoding Czech politics for the country’s partners. He also founded the Women’s Campaign School in the Czech Republic.
