Evi Chantzi is a cultural manager and a journalist. She studied literature and cultural studies in Bordeaux and Berlin and was a student assistant at the Max-Planck-Institute for the History of Science.

In her professional life, she has worked as a freelance journalist for Radio Multikulti, SWR International and the Zeitschrift für Kulturaustausch and as a programme-editor and moderator for the Greek radio-show of Funkhaus Europa. Her journalism focuses on topics of migration and contemporary cosmopolitanism. Parallel to this, she coordinated transcultural projects for the Goethe-Institute in Athens and the Collegium Hungaricum Berlin. In 2011, she joined global prayers • redemption and liberation in the city as project coordinator.
