Description

The Ministry for Foreign Affairs is planning a book called The Book of Happiness, which would celebrate Finland's possible tenth year as the happiest country in the world in 2027. This would be a high-quality hardcover book by Monocle that would combine essays, interviews, photojournalism, design and social perspectives around the theme of Finnish happiness. An external partner is needed for the implementation of the book, as the Country Description Unit of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs does not have the production know-how and resources required for the production of the book. The Country Photography Unit has also carried out publications with partners in the past, but this time with the aim of acquiring a partner that enables not only production, but also marketing and distribution cooperation.
