The 11th tve Global Sustainability Film Awards Shortlist Announcement is happening on
Friday 28 October, 16:00 – 18:00
Lecture Theatre, Vijay Patel Building, De Montfort University
The tve Global Sustainability Films Awards (GSFA) recognises outstanding
films from the business, non-profit, media and creative sectors that inspire
audiences with real-world solutions for a more sustainable future. Now in
its 11th year, the awards promote powerful, effective storytelling that
helps contribute to the building of a more just and sustainable future.
tve is a UK-registered charity founded by the United Nations Environment
Programme, WWF-UK, and Central Television (now part of ITV) in 1984. The
charity’s mission is to use the power of storytelling to drive real world
change for a more sustainable future by keeping the crucial UN Sustainable
Development Goals in mind.
The GSFA is both a film award and a sustainability award. It is unique
because entries are judged on the power of their storytelling and
creativity, as well as on the credibility and impact of their content.
