global pitch 2023

climate change

Climate change is not just a scientific or environmental issue, it is also societal and geostrategic. Facing the climate emergency that affects us all and requires our action, the documentary genre can provide a constructive, verified and rigorous media treatment.

With this in mind, the 2023 edition of Global Pitch for Global Change was dedicated to climate change, its consequences on our societies and the concrete solutions implemented around the world.

We were looking for stories and narratives that are important, powerful, original, engaged and engaging, highlighting the societal, economic, political, geostrategic and human issues of climate change.

During two days (7-8 February 2023), twelve selected projects were presented to a panel of top-level decision-makers with pre-recorded video pitches. Each pitch was followed by a live eight-minute Q&A session, and continued through pre-arranged one-to-one meetings with specific buyers and commissioners to initiate concrete creative and financial discussions. Pitching sessions were preceded by Meet the Executives keynotes from our sponsors and followed by Industry Catch-ups. In these rooms, attendees had the opportunity discuss with four top executives from: Generation Africa, Doc Society, The StoryBoard Collective and The Whickers.
