Advanced Visual Storytelling Educational Programme Participants Announced

Announcing the NOOR Advanced Visual Storytelling Educational Programme participants. 10 visual storytellers will take part in the intensive workshops led by mentors Benedicte Kurzen and Ishola Akpo in Ivory Coast in 2023.

The NOOR Advanced Visual Storytelling Educational Programme is a long-term training tract in partnership with the Chocolonely Foundation. We have joined hands to organise an extensive educational programme in West Africa to bring together young talent and communities, create a collective space, develop creative collaborative processes, and shape up new narratives.

This initiative will bring together the talent of regional visual storytellers, the knowledge of community facilitators, the NOOR mentoring expertise and the underrepresented voices of the workers of the cocoa communities in Ivory Coast.

Our international panel of jury members has selected 10 participants who will take part in this programme in 2023.
