One of the main objectives of the UN Development Group is to help country teams improve their development operations by building on existing strengths and experiences. A sampling of joint communication good practices and case studies are available on this page from Albania, Cambodia, Kosovo, Mongolia, Rwanda, Tanzania, Viet Nam, and Zambia to highlight how UN country teams are working together to develop a coherent visual identity, conduct joint media relations, increase advocacy on key UN issues, enhance its communication capacity, and improve internal communication. Country teams are strongly encouraged to share their joint communication good practices and case studies to be included on this page to benefit our communication colleagues. Please send your samples to DOCO for web posting. |
