As a photojournalist, I focus on what tends to stay out of sight to inspire, to expose injustice about social and environmental justice issues and to create an enduring change.
Recently I finished the multi-media production Indigenous People Today. This production consists of 9 features and documentaries and a book called Survive. The series highlights the irreversible consequences of climate change on indigenous people in the northern hemisphere and around the equator and will show the personal, daily stories behind the shocking statistics.
The stories are not only about victimhood, but also about climate justice and their resilience, adaptability and ingenuity. We have visited communities in Greenland, Canada, Sweden, Mongolia, Nepal, Peru, Bangladesh, the Philippines and Morocco.
Currently I am working on a series about human trafficking, including sexual exploitation of children, child marriages, child labor and child soldiers in assignment of De Groene Amsterdammer.
In addition, I am a maverick, energetic and experienced human rights and communication professional specialized in the development of global multimedia campaigns, documentaries, journalistic items and PR with the objective of positioning the organization as a trustworthy partner of choice to governments, donors and beneficiaries and to raise awareness about sexual exploitation of children, child marriages and female genitale mutilation.
Awards and honors: Mother Teresa Memorial Award for Social Justice (Mumbai), Golden Lion (Cannes), Black Pencil (New York) and ADCN Grand Prix (Amsterdam).
