Noah Moeys is an internationally oriented journalist currently situated in Peru. She works as a foreign correspondent and investigative journalist for Dutch and English media, focusing on natural resources, mining and the environment. She often searches for the human face in a story and likes to write narratively. At 22, her first articles were published in The Guardian.
Since Noah is based in Peru, her work has appeared in Trouw and De Groene Amsterdammer. She frequently reports live on Dutch and Belgian national radio, or joins in radio programs such as Bureau Buitenland. She vlogs about correspondent life for Villamedia.
Previously, Noah worked two years as an investigative journalist for Het Financieele Dagblad, the Dutch financial newspaper. She found €340 million hidden in the bottle return system, leading to cover stories that received national attention. In 2025, she did long distance hikes (Pieterpad) with successful entrepreneurs, including ASML ceo Peter Wennink.
Through her upbringing in three different countries – the Netherlands, Norway and Libya – her open-minded interest in the world and its people was triggered. As an 18-year old, she spent several months living with indigenous people in the Amazon rainforest and this further motivated her to look for hidden stories and communicate them respectfully. In 2019 and 2022 she returned to the Amazon working as a freelance journalist, resulting in publications in The Guardian and NRC. During the Peruvian coup-d’état in December 2022, Noah was the only Dutch journalist present in Lima, leading to a reportage in Trouw.
Noah has completed two bachelor’s degrees simultaneously: Journalism and Cultural Anthropology (through Liberal Arts and Sciences) at Utrecht University. She is a well-disciplined and empathetic young woman who speaks and writes in English, Dutch, Norwegian and Spanish, and is proficient in French. During her first and second year at the School of Journalism, she won the awards for Best Publication and continues to strive for her best possible work. In 2020 her first book was published: “Zwerkbal en ander quarantaineleed“, featuring her columns about student life during the corona-pandemic.
