Impact(Ed) International reposted this
Check out the piece below from Scott Budnick at 1Community. Yes, content still rules as a means to shape what we think about, how we understand the world, and how we behave as a result. Entertaining content (fiction or non-fiction) is like a superhighway into the human brain. In addition to 1Community, MACRO, Madison Wells Media , and social impact agencies like Picture Motion, there are a host of international producers working in social impact entertainment at a massive scale with dramatic results. (Check out the SIE Society for both US and global players.) Our own work – from narrative features to animated series – has been seen by tens of millions of people and measurably changed behaviors and attitudes. I hope the end of Participant will mean more in #Hollywood will join those in #Nollywood, #Bollywood, #Swahiliwood, #Lollywood and elsewhere to “participate” in wielding the weapon of content for good.

Can you help connect us to funders to bring our project to life?
As I was pitching our project to reach girls in Afghanistan, I saw the article below. “Horror” is the appropriate word. I feel compelled to share this project with my LinkedIn network and ask if you would help connect us to potential funders... Globally, significant progress has been made in girls’ education, but for girls in Afghanistan there is no education beyond sixth grade. Eighty percent of school aged girls are out of school and 30% of primary-school-aged girls have never attended school. In Afghanistan, women and girls are essentially banned from public life. We have the opportunity to reach 4.3 million girls isolated at home in Afghanistan through popular free-to-air television channels, along with another 25 million people (boys, families, and community members). We’ll use the format of our highly successful, International Emmy Award-winning, animated TV series, My Better World, adapted for girls in Afghanistan. We have brilliant partners, embedded in communities, that know how to appropriately and safely involve girls in story development using a Human Centered Design approach. When we used this model in Northern Nigeria the World Bank measured a 43% increase in girls’ enrolment in school across 128 communities. The UK gov’t called it “strong value in girls’ education.” Using this proven framework, we’re going to build girls’ social emotional health, resiliency, and life skills (alongside boys allyship for gender equity), while simultaneously motivating communities to shift harmful social norms – creating a more “enabling environment” for girls to grow psychologically, socially, and academically. Would you introduce us to foundations, family offices, and others who might be interested in making this happen? Thank you so much! #afghanistan #girlseducation #humanrights #SDGs

Shoutout to Global Innovation Fund for spearheading the movement and spotlighting the impact of our #edutainment endeavors and those of The MTV Staying Alive Foundation. The potential for scaling up social behavior change communication is immense, and we're ready to seize it!
In the final blog in our joint series with our friends and colleagues at Innovations for Poverty Action, we highlight how #edutainment is powerful tool in the fight for #genderequality. In their recent #report on 'Best Bets' in #globaldevelopment, Innovations for Poverty Action singles out edutainment interventions for their strong evidence of #impact and potential to #scale. Entertainment mediums like #film, #television, and #radio not only have the power to #influence societies and cultures, but also to bring about widespread behavioural change by positively engaging people on critical issues. We highlight the work of two #investments in GIF's portfolio: Impact(Ed) International and The MTV Staying Alive Foundation ⬇ #internationaldevelopment #aid #socialimpact #innovatingtogether #gender #innovation

🎙 "Localization becomes the key link to the audience." Listen to our Exec Producer and Co-CEO, Aric Noboa, talk about how we don't just create content; but produce TV and film that really resonates with our audiences. It's not just about what's on screen; it's about connecting with the audience through language and cultural nuances. This is what impactful storytelling really is. 🎥 #Edutainment #socialimpact #mediaforsocialimpact #localization
