Hi! I’m Mehran Khalili. I help movements turn ideas into action. I also host public talks on politics and strategy, and take black-and-white photographs. I’m based in Athens.
For 14 years, I’ve advised a range of organisations on how to increase their impact — from grassroots movements and citizen media startups, to the UNDP and WWF. I co-founded the political consultancy Clearcase. Before that, I worked in comms for global tech firms, and as a management consultant with Andersen.
I also produce and host public conversations for DiEM25, often with Yanis Varoufakis, focused on resistance and how to confront power. Guests have included the economist Richard Wolff, author Cory Doctorow and organisers from mass movements.

My photographs have been shown in exhibitions across Europe, and published in outlets like LensCulture and Vice.
