At Adventure Scientists, our work is powered by people and so are our stories. Every expedition, data point, and moment in the field carries a unique perspective worth sharing. That’s why we welcome guest-submitted media and stories from volunteers, partners, and collaborators who want to spotlight conservation in action.
Photo & Video Guest Media Entry Guidelines
We welcome high-quality photos and creative media that help to tell your story, including:
Un-edited field photography
Short videos (15-60 seconds preferred)
Audio recordings and voice stories
Please ensure that you have permission from anyone clearly identifiable in your media, photos are labels with clear captions and/or credits, and media accurately represents Adventure Scientists mission, projects, and/or protocols.
How to Submit Your Story
Please keep submissions shorter than 500 words, and do not overtly advertise or saturate them with links. All submissions are reviewed by our team. We reserve the right to edit content for clarity, accuracy, and length.
