Their outgoing editor has issued a pitch call: “Asian Dispatch is seeking pitches from journalists across Asia on stories around Asian societies, culture, politics, technology, and climate. Brownie points for those who can think beyond their regions, and pitch cross-border, on-ground reportage, sharp/in-depth analysis, and personal essays. If you’ve never done cross-border reporting, our wonderful team is happy to help you find reporting partners in other countries and provide editorial guidance throughout. Our rates are $250 for pieces up to 1,500 words, and $350 for longer, cross-border reporting.” See their pitch call here and general pitch guide here.
