Our contributors report from all from over the world.

Each season of On Spec brings in journalists from around the world—people who speak the language, understand the context, and have deep connections to the stories they tell. These aren’t parachute reports. They're partnerships. From Addis Ababa to Chennai, Tucson to Moscow, Yerevan to Kinshasa, our collaborators bring local knowledge, lived experience, and a fierce commitment to truth.
