The World Healthy Image Bank (WHIB) is an Internet based digital photo library devoted exclusively to visual communication. WHIB is dedicated to promoting high-quality images to the UN, Agencies of the UN common system, Ministries, Civil Society, the Private Sector and other related publications. WHIB is developing its own image database illustrating educational, health, labor, environmental, humanitarian and sustainable development issues and offers to carry out customized photographic assignments and consultation for the gathering and dissemination of images.
We plan to offer different levels of access to the images: public for general use, password-protected for networks. The WHIB should also be promoted during the General Assemblies of the UN and UN Agencies as well as to individual at duty stations. In order to disseminate photographic materials to regions where internet access is limited, WHIB may develop customized CD ROM (or DVD) – based simplified versions of selected images of the repository and according to the customer’s needs. Images may not be used for advertising purposes without separate and express permission of WHIB.*
