Hannah Reyes Morales

Hannah is a Filipina photojournalist whose work focuses on individuals mired in complex situations created by inequality, poverty, and impunity. This includes photographing human trafficking at sea for The New York Times, reporting on war crimes against Cambodian women for Al Jazeera America, and documenting changing indigenous cultures in the Philippines for a grant from National Geographic. Her personal projects also follow a similar vein - her latest work looks at the intimate and complex lives of the domestic workers employed by her own family in the Philippines. She was a 2016 Climate Change Reporting Fellow with The GroundTruth Project.

In the wake of typhoons, women and girls from climate change vulnerable areas, particularly Samar and Leyte, wind up in the sex trade after being displaced from storms.
