Impact Filmmaking for Social Justice: Exposing human rights defenders in films and impact campaigns – risks and benefits.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The Impact Days\u2019 sixth edition kicks off on January 18 with its annual public webinar on Impact Filmmaking for Social Justice<\/em>. This year we ask: How do we protect activists while promoting their work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Films can be a powerful tool to support the work of human rights activists. However, from the moment we start following them with a camera, through to the screening and broadcast of the completed film in festivals, networks and institutions, we are exposing our protagonists to increased risks. Through a case study and panel we will discuss safety measures – from film development to impact campaign design – when working on politically sensitive human rights issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emmy awards nominated in the category of outstanding investigative documentary, Delikado<\/em><\/strong> tells the story of a network of environmental defenders trying to protect their idyllic island of Palawan in the Philippines, and the dangerous situations they face. The impact campaign, which was in part conceived at Impact Days in 2021, is being run both within and outside the country. The case study will be presented by Delikado<\/a><\/em> director Karl Malakunas <\/strong>(Australia) and producer Kara Magsanoch-Alikpala<\/strong> (the Philippines).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Documentary filmmakers, producers and impact producers face an important responsibility when they tell stories of human rights defenders. Often already at risk, these protagonists can benefit from the exposure the films give their work. But this exposure can also bring added danger. How can all production partners, including throughout an impact campaign which can last several years, secure the right balance between supporting a defender\u2019s work and protecting them from becoming more visible targets?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
