Open Call - NOOR Visualising Climate Crisis: Advanced Mentoring Programme in Vietnam

Applications are open for the NOOR Visualising Climate Crisis: Advanced Mentoring Programme in Vietnam taking place between April and September 2023.

The NOOR Visualising Climate Crisis: Advanced Mentoring Programme is an 8-month advanced visual storytelling training course dedicated to photographers and visual journalists from Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Laos. The programme, which is taught in English, is a combination of two physical workshops in Hanoi, Vietnam and a 5-month online mentorship program to develop individual projects on the Climate Crisis in the region. The new work will be presented as a collective outdoor exhibition in Hanoi in September 2023.

The educational programme will be mentored by award-winning photojournalists Kadir van Lohuizen (Netherlands) and Linh Pham (Vietnam), reputed visual storytellers with extensive experience documenting the climate crisis.

The educational programme is organised by the NOOR Foundation, an Amsterdam-based international agency that focuses on creating opportunities for visual education and capacity building in ethical visual journalism and documentary practices. The programme is made possible thanks to the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of The Netherlands in Vietnam.

The Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) through its programme culture360.asef.org will support the communication activities and the organisation of a public side event with international experts in Hanoi in September 2023
