About BBC News The Box

Welcome to the BBC News photo group for The Box, a project in which we’re following a humble shipping container around the world for a year to tell the story of world trade, economics and globalisation.

Our container has been painted in BBC colours and has a tracking device fitted so we can keep tabs on it. At each port of call BBC correspondents will be there to report on who's producing goods and who's consuming them.

This group is where you can get involved, posting your pictures of The Box as it makes its way around the world, on ships, trucks or trains, in ports or at factories, being loaded and unloaded. We’ll also be posting our own pictures from behind the scenes.

The best pictures may get showcased on the BBC News website, so if you add your photos to our group, you're giving us permission to republish it royalty-free. We will attribute, and the copyright will remain with you.

Finally, please don’t endanger yourself or break the law while taking your pictures.

Thanks in advance for your contribution.

Chris,
BBC News website Specials team
