About Blankspot

Blankspot is a crowdfunded digital only platform for long form journalism, reported from around the world.

Our goal is to tell the stories that do not get told: putting the overlooked corners of the world under the looking glass.

We mainly publish in Swedish. A number of translated articles can be found here.

We welcome story suggestions, tips, and angles or perspectives you feel are missing in today’s media coverage.
