50° Heat & Flooded Jeeps: Stories from WVC's Reporters

Описание: In this episode of Vision Journal, host Chris Montgomery sits down with longtime World Vision Canada storytellers Mark Polic and Corey Scarrow.

Between them, they’ve spent decades behind the camera - traveling to communities around the world to document the realities of poverty, the complexity of crisis, and the hope that emerges through local resilience and partnership.

In this conversation, they share how they first became connected to World Vision (and what made them stay), what it was like in the telethon era - and how storytelling has evolved, any many other stories.
