The Correspondents Program

The Glimpse Correspondents Program is an exciting opportunity for talented young writers and photographers who will be abroad for at least 10 weeks. The program encourages participants to engage with people from other cultures, to seek out thought-provoking experiences, and to share their stories from abroad on Glimpse.org.

You don't have to be a Correspondent to contribute to Glimpse. We invite anyone who is going abroad to submit a story proposal, start a blog, participate in our ongoing photo contests, or share an Insider Tip. Learn more about our sharing opportunities here. For more information on the Correspondents Program, read on!
