Marta Saiz’s Biography

I’m Marta Saiz, a freelance journalist and independent reporter specializing in human rights, environmental issues, migration, drug policy, and conflict reporting; with a feminist perspective and a peace journalism approach. I have reported on the ground in more than 15 countries, including Colombia, Mexico, Chile, Guatemala, Palestine, Algeria, Greece, and Iran.

My work has been published by outlets including Pikara Magazine, Revista 5W, El País, France 24, Revista Late, Público, La Marea, Revolve, Las Drogas Info, and Semanario Brecha, among others. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with international organizations and NGOs, and have received research grants from institutions and foundations such as Journalismfund Europe, Investigative Journalism for Europe, the Gabriel García Márquez Foundation, and the European programme Connect for Global Change.

In 2025, I was a finalist in the King of Spain International Journalism Awards for a collaborative environmental project. In 2021, I received the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) Global Media Award on Labour Migration.
