The Elara Project is expanding its international network into Arunachal Pradesh, offering paid creative opportunities to women while linking the initiative’s revenue to investigations involving missing, trafficked and murdered girls.
Founded by missing persons investigator Michael Evans, the project is seeking women with skills in writing, video production, editing, storytelling and other creative fields. Applicants do not need large social media followings or established careers, with the initiative focusing on talent, authenticity and local perspectives.
Contributors selected for the project will be paid for their work. Revenue generated through the wider Elara initiative will also help support investigations into missing girls, runaway girls, trafficking victims and cold cases involving women.
Evans, who has spent more than two decades investigating missing persons and trafficking-related cases, developed Elara from experiences connected to his investigative work. The project includes Elara, based on true events, and Little Elara, aimed at promoting confidence, independence, problem-solving and personal boundaries among younger girls.
The initiative has already worked with female contributors from Meghalaya, Kohima, Dimapur and Mokokchung. Its expansion into Arunachal Pradesh is expected to bring more regional voices into its creative and social-impact network. Evans’ investigative work is carried out through Kingsman Philanthropic Corp. Interested applicants can follow Michael Evans on Instagram and contact him via direct message
