Marie Dumoulin is a guidance counsellor and student in the environmental mediation microprogram at the Université de Sherbrooke in Longueuil.

She holds a bachelor's degree in cultural animation and research and a master's degree in career studies from the Université du Québec à Montréal. She has mainly worked on personal mobilization, through career counselling, of people in vulnerable situations (newcomers; adults with neurological disorders and/or developmental delays). Today, she is particularly interested in citizen mobilization projects aimed at protecting and conserving the environment.

Co-founder and member of Montreal's first women's ice canoe team, Marie is also the producer and co-director of the documentary "Pourquoi qu'on fait ça", which features the St. Lawrence River in winter. She is also actively involved with animal shelters.

"Waterways give me so much energy and happiness! I want to show my gratitude by getting involved in their preservation and enhancement. I am very happy to be able to do this with the Fondation Rivières!"
