The Geneva Forum on Social Change (GFSC), which was established in January 2009 by University of Geneva students, is holding it second forum this week with a series of award-winning documentaries and workshops to promote social change throughout the world. This year's event, which takes place on Friday May 28 and Saturday May 29, 2010, will take place at the International Conference Centre in Geneva (Rue de Varembé 17 near the Place des Nations) and entrance is free. However, you should register online in order to take part. (Registration and programme link). This promises to be an interesting event, even for old hands, but particularly for high school pupils, students and professionals. It will give participants a chance to express some very different views in open discussion plus take part in highly informed workshops on social entrepreneurship, communications, and media such as filmi-making.
The 2010 focus is on Grassroots Innovation: Growing Business for Social Change. It will have an array of films, panels and workshops aim to inspire and empower social entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial organizations, individuals and communities to support innovative projects and to contribute to sustainable development. Last year's event attacted over 1,000 participants and included international Organizations, NGOs, social entrepreneurs, private corporations, professional and volunteer associations, diplomatic corps, academics and students.
