We help our UN, civil society and public sector clients accomplish their mission by providing them with comprehensive media and communications consulting services. After thirty years of existence, they have reached a level of maturity that makes them highly effective. Here are some highlights.
One of our projects
mondocalendar international and UN dates calendar
Our stakeholders work very hard at producing campaign materials year long. Their goal is to keep their cause on the people's agenda, the media agenda and the political agenda. They also use special days, weeks, months, years and even decades, to attract additional and heightened attention. These are known as international and United Nations days.

Happy '09

Another year comes to an end, but what a year!
Indeed, this has been quite a year, with good and bad, for the world, for the USA, for mondofragilis group and for our public interest clients and partners. During 2008, a milestone was reached in the United States. Indeed, a non-white President has been elected. In addition, I believe most of us would agree, that he seems to be one of the brightest Presidents the US has seen in decades.
For the world, this has not been a great year. The economic crisis is now becoming obvious to all but the most disconnected and even they, I think, will soon know. This is an unprecedented socio-economic event. Our only hope is, evidently, that we manage to get out of it before it become truly cataclysmic. The world has also seen some climate change milestones, pandemics are being re-examined and refugees are unfortunately still in the headlines. Indeed, our world has not had a great 2008.
For mondofragilis group, it's been, we admit, a great year. We have grown, consolidated, made new friends, brought in new clients, offered more services and otherwise made good on our promise to improve our service and quality. This said, much remains to be done. We did make some mistakes this year. Most were minor, a couple were not and we need to change this if we want to remain at the top of the media and communications ladder. One of our major changes will come early in 2009 when we hire our new flow control manager. This person will be responsible for controlling all that comes into the system, how we manage it while it's there and how we follow up once it's out. We have not yet found this pearl but we are definitely looking.
For our clients, it's been an okay year. Most are doing well on the operations side though we do know that some funding issues are becoming evident. One of our clients, for instance, is having a very difficult time being paid by one of its donors. And now, with the Madoff scandal, I'm guessing that others will also be affected. I do know that one of our own donor / partners was affected.
2008 was also the year when we produced Cancer is... This has been quite an adventure and we thank all our partners and friends for their efforts. I hope that during 2009, millions will see the films worldwide.
That's all for now. As you can see from the date, today is Christmas day and I have a family that is looking forward to opening their gifts. With these words I leave you all and wish you and your loved ones a wonderful holiday season and, if I don't blog before the 31st, a wonderful new year. Don't drink and drive, by the way, and don't forget to use a condom! There, I said it.
