Raia Seca is an independent editorial project covering the borderlands between northern Portugal and Galicia, known locally as the raia seca — the “dry border”, a stretch of frontier not marked by rivers.
Founded in 2026, it combines investigative reporting with essays, audio documentaries, sonic experiences and everyday chronicles from the region. Its reporting covers the region’s history of cross-border communities and resistance, as well as present-day struggles against intensive farming and extractive industries.
