FilmAid International
FilmAid shows films in refugee camps. Cool.
"Intellectual, visual and aural stimulation are needs often overlooked in humanitarian responses where the first priority is naturally given to legal and physical protection, subsistence, and health care. As displaced populations languish in camps, the erosion of cultural norms and community environment further aggravates health and social problems. By packaging taboo subjects within entertainment, tough issues can be destigmatized. FilmAid's programs address critical health and social issues such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, cholera, sexual and domestic violence, reproductive health and family planning."
