\nCanon Europe<\/strong><\/a> celebrates the third birthday of Miraisha<\/a>,<\/strong> one of its main sustainability programs, which has exceeded the quota of 3.000<\/strong> participants in its training sessions and workshops. Miraisha<\/strong><\/a> aims to promote new professional opportunities in Africa<\/strong> through workshops for photographers, videographers, film-makers and print shop owners.
\nIn May,<\/strong> a new initiative was inaugurated in collaboration with \u201cThe NRB Bus\u201d<\/a>:<\/strong> a London<\/strong> double-decker bus that will host several training workshops focusing on creativity in the Westlands district of Nairobi, Kenya.<\/strong> The bus will then make a roadshow for all of Kenya.<\/strong>

\nStuart Poore, Head of Sustainability at Canon Europe<\/a>,<\/strong> said: \u201cThe Miraisha<\/a> program<\/strong> has made a lot of progress over the last 12<\/strong> months. We are proud of its participants and the results they have achieved. It is exciting to be able to carry out further training courses in collaboration with The NRB Bus<\/a>.<\/strong> The Miraisha<\/a> program<\/strong> perfectly embodies our Kyosei<\/strong> business philosophy, living and working together for the common good. We are very committed to continuing our business in Africa.\u201d<\/strong>
\nAmong the other initiatives that Canon<\/strong><\/a> has made in the last year, yhere are \u201cTrain the Trainer\u201d<\/strong> program, an \u201cinvestment\u201d in local trainers in African countries that currently involves 15 people, six of which already qualified as accredited trainers, and the \u201cStorytelling Lab\u201d<\/strong>, which last September brought Anthony Obayomi<\/strong> to win the National Geographic Photography Portfolio Review,<\/strong> at the LagosPhoto<\/strong><\/a> festival. During the original workshop, which took place in December 2016, Anthony<\/strong> had used the EOS 650D<\/strong><\/a> with different objectives. Thanks to this award and to the laboratory, today Anthony<\/strong> is now in contact with National Geographic<\/strong> and other international photo agencies.
