Millennium bim, in partnership with the Khanimambo Association, supported the painting of a mural created as part of World Albinism Awareness Day. The initiative is part of the Bank’s ongoing efforts to promote inclusion and raise awareness of the challenges faced by people with albinism in Mozambique.
The mural, located in the downtown area of the city, is the creation of the renowned visual artist Sebastião Coana, and aims to make the wider community aware of the importance of protecting and valuing people with albinism. With vibrant colours and symbolic elements, the artwork seeks to convey a message of respect, equality and acceptance of difference.
Millennium bim’s CEO, João Martins, said: “Through art, we paint a new picture of inclusion and awareness, breaking down barriers of prejudice and celebrating diversity. The mural is a cry for equality, an invitation for everyone to look beyond differences.”
Support for the painting of the mural is one of the pillars of action of the Bank’s Social Responsibility Programme “Mais Moçambique pra Mim”, which has been implemented over the years with a significant impact on the lives of Mozambicans.
