The Cineforums are extraordinary spaces for knowledge creation and exchange. They blend conference, training and film festival elements and bring together truly diverse perspectives to take a closer look at important contemporary issues. Each Cineforum is the launch of a strand of Fair Knowledge work in the field it explores. Click on each poster to enter the respective Cineforum Site.

Cineforum 1 was about Muslim Women: Visibility and Leadership and promoted Muslim women’s influence on a global scale. We are now delivering activities around advancing Muslim women in leadership roles, including training, mentoring, thought leadership support and media visibility. We will convene the Muslim Women’s World Summit in March 2011.

Cineforum 2 was Climate Change: The Road to Ecotopia, bringing together a diverse network of sustainability leaders and practitioners. We are taking this forward with a series of Collaboratories hosted by mainstream partners and government, to bring diversity and spark innovation within the positive futures sector.

Cineforum 3 will be on Space: Science and Society and aims to encourage more fringe voices to enter this challenging sector. We’ll also explore how space science can enhance society, especially in our relationship with the planet. This is being planned for June 2011.
