Here’s a site I think is worth a look both for the photography on it and the idea behind it.
\nGaia Photos mission is to “increase awareness about the challenges we are facing together on this planet and to promote understanding across all borders, physical or otherwise, of this world we share<\/em>“, and to “promote quality and diversity in documentary photography<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

They are also looking for photographers around the world, and if you are “an active and professional freelance photographer or photojournalist<\/em>” with “a ‘track record’ of working for publications or other media organisations<\/em>“and particularly if you live in a country where they don’t yet have photographers (when I looked there was only one for the whole of Africa but already a couple for the UK) this could possibly be a place worth putting your work.<\/p>\n

The site certainly has some interesting stories already posted on it, and looking through the names there I find a few I recognise, including Bevis Fusha<\/a> from Albania who I met in Poland<\/a> in 2005, and whose recent Facebook post led me to the site.<\/p>\n
