I have been member of Czech Pirate Party a and Pirate Party of Germany since 2012. Because of my cotutelle PhD I spend last years traveling between Prague (CZ) and Leipzig (DE). I concentrated on strengthening and intensifying of cross-border cooperation between PP-CZ and PP-DE. I participated in organization of following international Pirate conferences: PP3 in Dresden (2013), PP3 in Pilsen (2014) and Piratecon Mariánské lázně (2015). In autumn 2014 I was appointed as Deputy International Coordinator of Czech Pirate Party. As a profession I am experimental physicist. I am native speaker in Czech so I can also understand Slovak. I am fluent in English and German. My main Pirate interest is the democracy update on a super-national level.
Treasurer
Peter Freitag (PP-LU)
I am a member of PP Luxembourg, during my short career as political coordinator of the party I had the pleasure of organizing the international event of the signing of the common European Election campaign Program. I am sort of a Jack of all trades, I do not have a true specialization, but am able to work myself into most subjects if needs be. I am professionally bilingual in French and English, German and Luxembourgish being my native languages. I have notions of Dutch too. My interests are manifold, encompassing, politics, economics, psychology, philosophy in the broadest sense, tech in general, inter-personal and inter-societal relations. This list is hardly exhaustive. I adore learning new things and updating my already acquired knowledge, so my field of interests constantly broadens. My core beliefs are transparency, integrity and fairness. I believe that with people acting in good will, win-win solutions can be found most of the time.
Board members without appointed office
Magnus Andersson (PP-SE)
Oktavía Hrund Jónsdóttir (PP-IS)
Oktavía Hrund is a Deputy Member of Parliament for the Icelandic Pirate Party (PPIS), the Chairperson of the Feminist branch of PPIS and sits on the Technical Advisory Board of the Freedom of the Press Foundation. Oktavía has been politically active ever since she can remember and a pirate even before that. Free Expression, transparency against corruption and autonomy of the individual drive Oktavía’s activism.
I joined the Pirate Party of Greece as soon as its founding process was announced. I am serving as the party’s international coordinator since February 2013 and have represented PP-GR in several international Pirate meetings.
I am also happy to have had the opportunity to serve in the first Board of PPEU. That was a very interesting experience, which allowed me to learn a lot, and I hope that I can still do a few things to help the movement. I think there is a lot that still needs to be done to “kickstart” PPEU.
For a living I am a software engineer, with most of my experience being on virtualization technology and the Linux kernel. I speak Greek, English, German and French. I am a bit of an international person: I am a half Greek half German who grew up in Greece, studied and worked for 5 years in France, and currently lives in Munich, Germany.
