THE SOUTHEAST ASIA GLOBE
|
The Southeast Asia Globe is an independent media organization with reporters and editors across the region. Based in Phnom Penh, The Globe is considered one of the most trusted newsrooms in Cambodia. I joined as a reporting intern, before transitioning to a staff reporter. In this new role, I cover news and the environment. In collaboration with The Pulitzer Center, I was selected to join the Rainforest Investigations Network to investigate transboundary forests on Cambodia's borders with a focus on timber trade agreements, forest management and wildlife crime.
Additionally, I produce photos and videos as part of a newsroom-wide effort to improve The Globe's multimedia storytelling. With this initiative, I have developed collaborative coverage agreements with The Third Pole and The Mekong Eye, and have received a reporting grant from the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Foundation. |
