WHAT WE OFFER

A training and tutoring in Content Management in all of its aspects: from the research and the conception of an idea to developing of an editorial plan and its production in all its formats. The environment is really friendly as we foster an attitude of “slow journalism” that moves away from mainstream attitudes in most editorial offices, with their overly stressed and unhuman environments. Ouvert Magazine is a place where to discover what is happening in the world and to get to know the characters who are shaping the contemporary cultural landscape. You will also have continuous tutoring from the founders, who will give you advice and help you in your professional and personal growth process.
