We were delighted and highly honored to receive two awards in one night for Living in the Future’s Past.
One for best documentary on climate change and sustainability from New York Festivals (founded in 1957) and the Gold United Nations award for "Outstanding Achievement in International Communications which best exemplifies the ideals and goals of the United Nations"
A huge thank you to Rose Anderson, VP & Executive Director of the New York Festivals for our award for best documentary on climate change and sustainability. It was truly inspiring to share the evening with journalists and producers from over 50 countries represented, highlighting their passion and creativity at the Monday night awards ceremony.
It was a privilege to be honored alongside Al Jazeera America, BBC, Arte, IMAX, National Geographic, PBS, SKY TV, and CBC for their outstanding journalism and documentaries.
We are truly honoured to have also received the UN award for "Outstanding Achievement in International Communications which best exemplifies the ideals and goals of the United Nations” We hope that Living in the Future’s Past continues to provoke fresh thought on the environmental challenges facing us and open audiences to a form of eco cosmopolitanism, of thinking ecologically across borders and boundaries.
A huge thank-you to Alison Smale, former executive editor of The International Herald Tribune/ The International New York Times and current Under-Secretary for Global Communications and the rest of the UN Panel for honoring Living in the Future’s Past with this award.
