Giulia Afiune

"Giulia Afiune is a reporter covering politics, immigration and human rights. Originally from São Paulo, she has worked at GroundTruth, at the Texas Tribune and at Agência Pública, an investigative journalism organization in Brazil.

She was part of "Project 100" – a multimedia initiative that covered the stories of one hundred families who were forced to leave their homes due to construction projects linked to the Rio Olympics – which was recognized by the Gabriel García Márquez Award and the Vladimir Herzog Award, two of the top journalism prizes in Latin America.

When she's not traveling to unexpected places across the globe or across the city, she enjoys playing jazz and samba on the flute."
