THE PEOPLE’S PROCESS

PEOPLES-PROCESS
Good day all,

I just wanted to say I’m back in Geneva after another 3 weeks working in the Philippines. This time around I was there producing a video for UN Habitat and their “People’s Process” shelter program implemented following Typhoon Haiyan in Roxas City. It was an awesome experience working with a super fun bunch of folks from the top down.

The last 2 times I’ve been to the Philippines I’ve had the chance to work on projects outside of immunization and vaccines and it’s been wonderful to see how other UN agencies tackle challenging issues. I continue to hold in high regard those individuals that work globally to try and make such a difference in others lives while making sacrifices in their own, especially those in the field often away from their families for long periods of time.

I just wanted to say I’m back here in Geneva and I hope to see those based here and that travel here soon.

Ciao

Ligtas sa Tigdas Campaign 2014 Philippines

On August 28, 2014, I traveled from Geneva, Switzerland to Manila, Philippines and spent a day in the field with the World Health Organization (WHO), monitoring the Philippines Operation Ligtas sa Tigdas Campaign 2014. President Benigno S. Aquino III of the Philippines, led the launching of “Ligtas sa Tigdas at Polio,” a Mass Immunization Campaign spearheaded by the Department of Health (DOH) that aims to help lessen the growing cases of measles, as well as to make the Philippines a polio-free country.

The campaign intends to help the health department to achieve the Millenium Development Goal of reducing child mortality rate in the nation through free vaccines. The government planned to vaccinate an approximate 11 million children during the month of September 2014, aged between nine months old to five years old, against measles. Likewise, 13 million children would acquire free vaccination against polio.

All of the photos from my day of shooting were taken in Quezon City, one of the cities that make up Metro Manila, the NCR of the Philippines, on the island of Luzon. It is the most populous city in the country, and the largest city by area in Metro Manila, with many areas that are hard to reach, making many kids vulnerable to diseases that are preventable.

Enjoy this image, one of my favorite shots, and a few others from a hot, rainy and sweat filled day of shooting. #ligtassatigdas

Bohol, Philippines 2014 Visit

I just returned from the Philippines where I’m consulting on two projects, one in the earthquake damaged region of Maitum, Catigbian, Bohol, where I’m working to helping to rebuild a small community and offering additional services of creating private sector donor materials, as the typhoon shifted a lot of government and aid recourses to Tacloban, Philippines, ground zero of Typhoon Yolonda efforts.

The other project is a TV pilot aimed at promoting tourism to an international audience outside of the Philippines. As we all know, the end of 2013, the Philippines experienced a variety of unfortunate events in the form of the Zamboanga hostage crisis, followed by the Bohol 7.2 magnitude earthquake, the devastation of Typhoon Yolanda, and to start 2014, a serious measles outbreak in the Manila area.

As I’m sure most are aware of my UN related projects, I just wanted to remind those here in Geneva, that we are back after being away since early December and we’re ready and eager to start the New Year with a diverse rooster of projects. As a creative director & consultant based here in Geneva, I repurpose content, create information dashboards, design info graphics, advocacy and awareness materials including special initiative web sites and Facebook pages, offer photography & video services, and have a variety of journalist and technical writers that work on our range of products.

KAB Designs on the World Food Programme’s Facebook Homepage

I’m quite excited to share this foto that I shot on a recent visit to Zamboanga City, Mindanao, where we were there to document the Micronutrient Powder program for World Food Programme Philippines and how it contributes to child nutrition in the area. It appears on the WFP Philippines Facebook page. We’re so thankful here at KAB Designs for continued opportunities to partner with leading global agencies.
