Natalia Mroz

Natalia is a photographer and communications specialist whose work has defined the profile of UN agencies, NGOs, IGOs, and corporate foundations. She has over 15 years' experience producing innovative audio-visual content focusing on sustainable development, wildlife conservation, and humanitarian issues. She has travelled extensively in developing countries to photograph, write, and film stories that deliver results for communities and the organizations that support them. 

Based in East Africa for the last decade, she has worked on the strategic side of communications, crafting global media campaigns as part of the UN Environment Programme’s in-house communications team. Prior to that, she supported communications efforts at the Earth Institute at Columbia University.

Natalia’s personal work and incurable sense of adventure usually finds her camped under the stars, with her trusty 4x4, listening to the songs and stories of the world’s most remote communities. Many of her portraits and landscapes pay homage to the beauty and rich cultural history of Indigenous Peoples. 

Originally from Australia, Natalia has a joint BA Honours (1st) in Media and Communications and International Relations from the University of New South Wales, where she specialized in journalism and audio-visual production. You can see more of her work at www.nataliamroz.com.
