AFLAMUNA Impact Lab
immersive workshops around the power
of independent film as a tool for social change.
Our Impact Labs are immersive workshops where participants from diverse backgrounds pour over case studies and dissect effective strategies for harnessing the power of independent film as a tool for social change.
Regional and local labs are organized across the Arab region with local partners to spread knowledge about the practices of Impact Production and Impact Distribution and gather independent film and civil society actors to imagine radical partnerships and new pathways to audiences and change together.
