Jason Tanner
editJason Tanner (b.1970) is a British photojournalist currently based Pakistan.
His professional career began in 2005 covering news, sport and commercial photography in UK.
His extensive experience of travel in some 53 countries, including China, Zimbabwe, Iran, Pakistan and the Philippines led him to relocate to Bangkok in early 2008 focusing his efforts on coverage of humanitarian issues.
During 2008 he covered the earthquake in China, which resulted in the deaths of more than 68000 people. He covered both disputed elections in Zimbabwe recording human rights abuses by the ruling the Zanu-PF government against supporters of the MDC. He later returned to Zimbabwe in December 2008 to cover the Cholera outbreak, which claimed the lives of more than 4200 citizens.
In the summer of 2008 he documented the fight for peace in Mindanao, Southern Philippines where, after a deal to expand the Muslim autonomous zone was blocked by the Philippines Supreme Court, rebels from the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) occupied some 15 villages in the region triggering a retaliatory assault by the Philippine army resulting in the deaths of more than 200 civilians over a 48hrs period.
In late 2008 he embarked on a current long-term project documenting The Price of Instability in Pakistan.
His work has been published in the UK, Europe , USA and Australasia in publications such as The Times (UK), The Telegraph (UK), Sydney Morning Herald (AUS), Courier, TIME Magazine, Le Monde and Paris Match.
He has also contributed images for use in campaigns by UNHCR, Save the Children and the ICRC.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jason Tanner
edit
You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
A tag has been placed on Jason Tanner requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Inks.LWC (talk) 20:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
