The EU Delegation to Indonesia / Mission to ASEAN organized a writing and photography workshop on 29 January 2020 at Le Meridien, Jakarta, Indonesia, to improve the communication skills of internal Delegation staff and EU-funded projects, especially on drafting human interest stories and capturing effective photographs of project achievements.
Paul Forster, Team Leader for Cooperation and Visibility for EU Cooperation Project, gave a training on writing clear and impactful stories. As an activity, the participants worked on different stories to identify poorly written parts. For the documentation photography, a renowned Indonesian photographer gave insightful training on taking good photos when on the field.
Irish Dominado, the communications and visibility officer of the AFOSP-MTCP2 and AFA, participated in the workshop to further her capacities in writing stories and taking photos to meet the requirements for story and photo contributions to EU publications.
EU plans to conduct similar training courses / workshops in the future.
As AFOSP is a project supported by the EU, AFA contributes to some of its publications including the annual EU-ASEAN Blue Book and the EU newsletter.
