Mrs Lorelou DESJARDINS

I am a trained lawyer in international human rights law, with a specialisation on human rights violations by multinational corporations from  mining and other extractive industries. I lived many years in Indonesia and the Philippines working with NGOs and public radios. I have 15 years of experience working with policy work and project management within environmental issues.

I am now based in Oslo, Norway. Today I work for Norad, the Norwegian agency for development cooperation, managing the Norwegian development program to fight marine litter and microplastics.  I also speak Bahasa Indonesia, French, English and Norwegian fluently.
