Full Description
It is the result of a participatory video project facilitated by InsightShare (www.insightshare.org) on behalf of the Community-Based Adaptation (CBA) Programme, which is financed by the Global
Environment Facility (GEF, www.gefweb.org) and implemented by UNDP, in partnership with the GEF Small Grants Programme and the United Nations Volunteers.
This shortened version of the original 25-minuted video features the
initiatives of vulnerable communities to mitigate the impacts of climate change
on their environment, livelihoods and infrastructure.
The film was devised, planned, filmed, directed and in all other ways
undertaken by a group of 12 community representatives during a workshop held in
the villages of Fasito'otai and Fagamalo. The full version was edited on
location with the participants by the InsightShare facilitator in accordance
with a detailed edit plan created by the group and wider community.
