Dear Facilitators,
 
It was a real pleasure to meet you during the Retreat. I hope you are doing well.
 
As discussed during the Retreat, FFF would like to develop in the coming months some concrete stories about challenges and successes with a strong human/personal dimension, that speak to a wide audience.
 
  1. Product
We are thinking to develop a set of products like a short movie (around 5 minutes), and an article for each story.
 
  1. Scale
We could envisage different scales: a community getting organized, a story of a great leader or a forest farmer, or a family portrait, or some young people coming back to rural area for farm production,...
 
  1. Identify some possibilities (by the facilitator, or by call for proposal)
I am writing to you in order to ask you to identify some good examples in your country.
 
First I would like to ask from your experience in implementation of the activities, if you have any idea of some interesting cases. Then a call for proposal could be organized if you think this is needed.
 
  1. Technical realization
We also need to evaluate if the story can be developed locally at technical level or if we need some support from the FFF (journalist for the script, and film maker for the shooting). High quality standards are requested for the movie.
 
  1. Deadline
The final products should be ready by end of August for the World Forestry Congress.

Looking forward to receiving your suggestions for this initiative. I would be happy to discuss further with you some ideas, so don’t hesitate to contact me for fixing a skype call on this.
 
Kind regards,
 
Marguerite
