''Not to be confused with Camille Lepage, a Québécoise Civil servant murdered by former Canadian Forces corporal Denis Lortie during a shooting rampage at the National Assembly of Quebec in 1984'' Camille Lepage (January 28, 1988 – May 12, 2014) was a French photojournalist who was killed during the conflict in the Central African Republic in 2014. Her death was described as a "murder" by the French presidency and it marked the first death of a Western journalist in the conflict. == Early life and career == After completing her secondary education in Collège Saint-Martin in Angers, Lepage went on to study journalism in Southampton Solent University, during which she completed an Erasmus year in Utrecht's University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Camille Lepage, tuée en Centrafrique, avait fait " un bout de rue " avec nous )〕 She later specialized in photojournalism and worked independently in Africa, most notably in Egypt, South Sudan and the Central African Republic.〔 After finishing her degree in Southampton, she moved and based herself in South Sudan's capital Juba in July 2012, a year and a half before arriving to Bangui (CAR's capital) where she spent the last few months of her life. She opened up about her interests in conflicts and photojournalism in an interview a year before her death, where she was asked about her top moments of her career to date and she responded, "Not sure I can talk about my 'career' just yet, I’m still just getting started! I find it amazing to be able to travel probably to some of the most remote areas, meet wonderful people everywhere and being able to document them."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=French photojournalist Camille Lepage killed in Central African Republic )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Photographer Camille Lepage Killed in Central African Republic )〕 She was a well-known photojournalist and her work has been published in several news outlets, such as : New York Times, The Guardian, Le Monde, The Washington Post, Der Spiegel, Libération, Le Nouvel Observateur, La Croix, The Sunday Times, Wall Street Journal, Vice Magazine, Al Jazeera and was widely used by BBC.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UN condemns murder of French photojournalist in Central African Republic )〕 She had also worked for several non-governmental organizations including : WFP, Enough Project, UNESCO, Internews, Crown Agents, Deloitte, Amnesty International and Médecins sans Frontières.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=French journalist Camille Lepage killed in CAR )〕〔http://hanslucas.com/clepage/photo〕〔http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/05/13/camille-lepage-photos-photography-journalist-french-murdered_n_5317931.html〕 Lepage spoke passionately about the seriousness of the news stories surrounding the Central African Republic conflict that are not covered by the mainstream media: "I can’t accept that people’s tragedies are silenced simply because no one can make money out of them," she said. "I decided to do it myself, and bring some light to them no matter what."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIP Camille Lepage, French photojournalist killed in Central African Republic )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camille Lepage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
