Pierre Duquesne
Reporter, Politics
I have a degree from the Journalism School in Toulouse, and I started working at Contexte in August 2021. My career started at L'Humanité, where I was part of the working-class neighbours section before leading logement, cities and territories. I was then asked to follow the right for the daily newspaper, for which I covered the 2017 presidential election. I’ve been an independent journalist since 2019. I’ve worked on several publications and gained a wealth of experience in media education. I also have a two-year Master’s degree in Social Law.
