We will engage in a conversation with the director and the director of impact about strategies for shifting awareness, sparking community action, and the importance of simplifying scientific data for the public.

We will explore:

  • How funders can best use media to raise awareness about important issues
  • The power of documentaries in shifting public debate
  • The role independent filmmakers play in fostering greater understanding of how the world’s most pressing issues affect our everyday lives
