The Eugad team has landed in the African soil. We find ourselves in an eco-village at the Number 2 River, a fascinating coast line where the river meets the sea in Sierra Leone. The touristic centre in the Freetown Peninsula is ideal for groups of adventurous travelers who want to live a challenging holiday experience (have a look!). Equipped for the challenge, and initiating our wild African times with this milder introduction, we are eagerly awaiting to start shooting (videos).
The Eugad Team, in collaboration with Italian journalists from RAI, will hunt for stries, opinions and video material in Sierra Leone. Material which will be utilized for the preparation of our manual and for the production of an 8 episode documentary on the Milennium Development Goals.
The documentary analyzing the challenges of implementing the MDG agenda, the EU commitment, the ongoing effort and the results achieved.
“People must dance more together”, Bernhard Hoeper told EUGAD in an interview. When people connect through their heart, the information touches them at a much greater degree; and this is what “Eight” aimed at.
Let’s unite, STAND UP and take action. Organized by Filmbooth, in collaboration with the UN, EU and many other non-profit organizations; ‘Eight’ was a two day film festival (18-19 Sep 2010) aimed to raise awareness, motivate and unite people – through the medium of short films, workshops, seminars – and bring their heart closer with each others and with humanity for the achievements of the MDGs. The festival ended with a mesmerizing concert combining Indian classical music’s from all of India’s corners.
While focusing on India’s achievements and failures, the speaker also mentioned the importance India’s achievements hold for the worldwide achievements of the MDGs worldwide. “If India progresses, the world progresses, without us you are going to miss your target” told Nafisa Ali, a social activist and actor.
The speaker also debated over the re-definition of what progress really means and what the GDP really measures. “We are unlikely to meet any of these goals unless we re-define what progress really is” said Dr. Pachauri, chairmen of the IPCC – the organization which won the Nobel peace price with Al Gore
In this time when we are in the middle of the UN meeting on the MDGs, it is important to remind ourselves of the underling poetry to this commitment. It is time to remind our government to have the courage to Stand Up and its people the courage to share.
