Using video to change the world!

Using video explicitly as a tool to effect social change is a technique often used by governments and corporations, but only recently available to independent activists and NGOs.

This session will introduce participants to the lessons learned by video activists in producing and disseminating/providing platforms for video for social change.

Participants will relay their experiences with relevant video projects, discussing questions like: How can we maximize the impact of our video work? How can our production and dissemination strategies increase the impact of the video? How can video activism be financially sustainable? How can open source tools be used in these processes?
