All funds raised will directly support our film's impact campaign. We hope that our film and outreach work can begin to mend humanity's fractured relationship with the Earth and one another.
Vandana Shiva is not yet a household name. We will work to change that. Mainstream conversation around the climate ignores industrial agriculture's role in the crisis. We will work to change that too. We plan on partnering with impact specialists and distributors to ensure Vandana’s message achieves global reach.
Global food systems sit at the heart of the climate crisis. Responsible for one-third of human-caused emissions, industrial agriculture is destroying our soil and water, our biodiversity, and the ecosystems that keep the planet in balance. Consumers and farmers are left dependent on multinational corporations like Monsanto/Bayer and Cargill whose business model places profit above protecting the environment and feeding the world.
Our impact campaign will empower grassroots change through:
- Educational Institutions: colleges & universities, schools, homeschool groups, and libraries
- Advocacy, Community-led Groups: organic food and farming, regenerative agriculture, climate change, biodiversity, seed sovereignty, globalization, social justice, food systems, faith-based groups
- Conferences: including food & ag, social justice, health, wellness, and consciousness.
Our outreach will:
- Inspire people to support small, regenerative farmers and food producers by buying locally-grown, non-GMO foods – ‘vote with their fork’
- Encourage local efforts to save and share seeds, increase access to seed banks
- Motivate more people to grow their own food, even if just starting with a single herb
- Galvanize hope, compassion & empathy through teachings of oneness and interconnectedness.
We will work to:
- Show the film to policy makers to build greater awareness of the high costs of industrial agriculture versus the benefits or ecological food
- Encourage policy change to support regenerative over industrial food systems
- Coordinate with activists to use the film as a tool for their advocacy work.
Thank you!
