Biography
Born in 1978, Amélie Mouton is a journalist, author and translator. She regularly collaborates with the Belgian independent press (Imagine demain le monde, Médor) and media such as La Libre Belgique, Jeune Afrique or Orient XXI. Spurred by a fondness for literary journalism and long formats, as well as a deeply felt concern for the ecological crisis the world is facing, she has done a number of in-depth reportages, covering, for example, desertification in Turkey, the Fukushima disaster, and the return of whales to the waters off New York City. She is currently writing a novel on oil and global warming in the Arabo-Persian Gulf, as part of the Master in Ecopoetics and Creative Writing at the University of Aix-Marseille.
