KEVIN MCLEAN
In 2016-17 I spent a year split between Malaysian Borneo and the Ecuadorian Amazon on a Fulbright-National Geographic Digital Storytelling Fellowship. I was studying canopy wildlife, writing about field research, and producing digital media. Here is a selection of the work I did while abroad and the coverage that my work received. You can also hear me talk about the experience on the 22.33 Podcast from the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
