Hello all,

Behind the scenes, myself, tech and Tom have been working to release our Demotix Training pages.

You all have different levels of expertise and training when it comes to journalism, working in dangerous environments, and the technology you need to get the job done.

We'll be adding to the section regularly to make it a resource you can rely on on these subjects.

We have an immediate request from a UK magazine.

Do you have any pictures of Macaé?

If you have any pictures in your archive that suit this brief - it would be great if you could email me with any pictures immediately - juliette@demotix.com

They are looking for pictures of the favelas and the people who live there, compared to the rich people living in the smart part of Macaé who have made money from the oil industry.

Favelas:
‘Nueva Holanda’ and ‘Nueva Esperanza’
But any favela will do.

Macaé town:
The rich oil workers enjoying their money.

Hi all,

Hope all of you have been having a wonderful time with Demotix. I'm your new regional editor Brian Tsui. Originally I'm from Hong Kong before coming to the UK for university education. I'm a graduate of University of Warwick studying Politics with International Studies.

I aim to feed you with news ideas at least once a week for each South East Asian country, or, whenever I can come up with some interesting news!
