Julia Belzig is a freelance journalist based in Berlin, Germany, reporting on sociopolitical, cultural, and feminist issues. Her work has appeared in publications including taz.Die Tageszeitung, Der Tagesspiegel and Missy Magazine. She holds a master's degree in "Gender and International Relations" from the University of Bristol. Julia Belzig was part of the 2024 Daniel-Haufler-fellowship and the 2025 program by the International Women's Media Foundation: "Women on the Ground: Reporting from Ukraine's Unseen Frontlines."

As a Transatlantic Media Fellow, she will continue her research into the rollback of reproductive rights in the United States. Traveling to Washington, D.C., she will report on the digital battle for abortion access and investigate how online censorship restricts essential healthcare information. She will also explore how deepfakes and digital attacks are being used to push (congress)women out of politics, as cyber threats and online abuse increasingly silence voices in public life.
