The context you need, when you need it

When news breaks, you need to understand what actually matters — and what to do about it. At Vox, our mission to help you make sense of the world has never been more vital. But we can’t do it on our own.

We rely on readers like you to fund our journalism. Will you support our work and become a Vox Member today?

Vox Borders is back! Here’s where we’re going.

We’re hitting the road again and want your ideas.

Vox Borders is an international documentary series that focuses on the human stories of some of the world’s most interesting places. It started last year with six locations and six docs. I’m excited to announce that I’m hitting the road again to make more of these videos. This video announces our first location for season two.

I’ll be traveling to new places to tell similar stories to season one. Hong Kong is my first stop, where I’ll be producing multiple shorter video docs on local stories that need explaining.

Vox Borders stories are always so much stronger when the community helps in the storytelling. To that end, I’m looking for locals from Hong Kong (or Macau) who want to help with the project. If you have local knowledge of Hong Kong or Macau and want to contribute to Borders, please join the Vox Borders local network to tell me more about yourself and how you’d like to contribute to the project. If you’ve been to Hong Kong and just want to contribute an idea, you can do that too.

You can also follow everything publishing from Borders on the new Vox Borders Facebook Watch Page. And you can follow along behind the scenes in real time on my Instagram page.

You can find this video and all of Vox’s videos on YouTube. Subscribe for more!
