European Union in Myanmar, Mandalay-People in Need & Handicap organisation
Photo Assignment with European Union in Myanmar
The assignment responds to the need to develop
communication materials to illustrate the impact of EU-funded projects in
Myanmar, particularly a photo library. This tool will be used for a wide range
of creative, technical and documentary purposes (including website, social
media, newsletters, leaflets, posters, national and international media, etc.).
The photos reflect not only the local contexts, living standards and natural
landscapes of the areas visited, but also the purpose and meaning of the
different EU interventions.
Over the last few years, Myanmar has embarked in a
historic and multi-faceted transition process. This process included a number
of political and economic reforms aimed at fostering an inclusive democratic
system, resolve the long-standing ethnic conflicts and creating an increasingly
diversified and internationally integrated economy.
In line with the priorities identified by the
Government of the Union of Myanmar (GoUM), the EU-funded Institutional
Strengthening and Policy Dialogue Support project aims to strengthen public
institutions and non-state actors and develop capacities for policymaking,
planning and implementation to respond to citizens’ needs and contribute to
general socio-economic development.
