In the autumn of 2017 she launched NewsMavens - a news round-up curated exclusively by women from European news organisations. The project is funded by the Google DNI Fund and Gazeta Wyborcza.
Privately, Zuzanna teaches Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction to emerging Polish leaders, raises two rebellious kids and pretends she quit smoking.
