CHRISTIAN SPAHR

Managing Director

Jointly with Juliane, Christian manages the day-to-day work of Lie Detectors and continues to develop its strategy. He pays particular attention to the management structure, work processes and resources. Before, as Secretary General of the Assembly of European Regions, Christian promoted citizen-centred policies and knowledge transfer between regional governments. Largely, his career has been shaped by media and communication: He was a newspaper editor, spokesperson in the digital industry and at the EU Commission, and led a media development cooperation programme for ten countries. Digital literacy, disinformation and the role of the media in democracy were key topics in Christian’s functions. He holds a master’s degree in linguistics and completed a journalism training programme.
