To Whom It May Concern:
We are very pleased to be able to inform you about the launch of WHO's
photo and video contest, "Images of Health and Disability 2006/2007".
This years contest is organized in collaboration with the WHO
Department on Public Health & Environment. The main theme will be
dedicated to "Health and Environment" -- an invitation to provide
high-quality photographs and for the first time, short video clips on
the positive or negative impact of the environment on people's health
and functioning. The contest is open as of today until 9th March 2007.
This is an invitation to raise awareness on the im****tance on ensuring
healthier and more enabling environments through powerful images,
illustrations, stories and video clips. A single powerful image can
form the basis of an excellent lesson, generate intense and thoughtful
discussion, and, to use the time honoured saying, be as effective as a
thousand words. Full details of the contest are herewith attached for
your ease of reference.
We would like to generate a maximum outreach for maximum entries. We
therefore would like to request from you to please highlight, publicize
and disseminate the announcement, poster and entry form as widely as
possible, and for further dissemination to appropriate professional
networks if possible.
The French and Spanish versions of the announcement will be available
online early next year.
The contest is highlighted on the ICF web site
(http://www3.who.int/icf)
as well as on the Public Health and
Environment website (www.who.int/phe) and will be on WHO's home page as
of 2nd January 2007.
The winners of last year's contest can be found on the ICF web site

Thanks you in advance for your time and attention.
Yours truly,
ICFphotocontest.
