Raquel Honorato

For over 15 years, I’ve worked as a journalist at Latin America’s largest media outlet, I was Globo reporter, reaching more than 10 million viewers daily. I’ve told stories that matter — from poverty and public health failures to gender equality and human rights — and reported from the frontlines of politics and policy-making, where decisions shape people’s lives.

In 2024, I was recognized by the United Nations in Latin America for a reporting series that helped rebuild public trust in vaccines through journalism. That experience reinforced my belief in storytelling as a tool for social transformation and collective trust.

I have also conducted countless interviews with high level authorities and representatives of large international organizations such as the UN.

After years in the media, I have developed a deep understanding of how to communicate with clarity, emotion, and purpose. I am skilled in emotional and strategic storytelling, advocacy messaging, and in translating complex issues into accessible narratives. My experience gives me the ability to train others in communication, and to confidently develop and implement strategies, manage media relations, and build partnerships with key stakeholders.

As a journalist I participate in all stages of the process: I research relevant content with the production team, I help to budget the costs of producing content with the financial sector, I engage woth managers about the relevance of the content, I travel to execute the project and deliver hours of production.

Native in Portuguese, Fluent in English and also speak Spanish and A2 Dutch. I bring a multicultural perspective and an ability to adapt messages across diverse audiences. Whether through journalism, training, or advocacy, my goal remains the same: to use communication as a bridge — between institutions and citizens, facts and empathy, local challenges and global solutions.
