Paul Choy is a documentary photographer, author, and journalist whose work centres on reaching communities and cultures the world rarely sees, and telling the stories that are rarely heard.

His forthcoming book, Still Here, draws on years spent among the remote communities of eastern and southern Africa, documenting how those communities address modernity, migration, and the continuity of culture. A second book, Witness, is in development: twelve people, drawn from every level of human society across the world, open a single day of their lives to the camera and the notebook, from those who navigate the corridors of power to those in the margins of survival.

He holds an appointment as Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Migration Agency (IOM), and carries press accreditations from the International Federation of Journalists and the National Union of Journalists. His work has taken him across six continents and more than fifty countries over three decades.
