The Africa Premiere of Planet Re:think.
A groundbreaking documentary focusing on our excess consumption of natural resources. The only way out of the global financial crisis is a sustainable economy. Winner of the Jury Award at the St. Tropez International Film Festival in Southern France!
Today we are facing not one, but two global crises: the financial crisis and the more insidious one relating to our misuse of natural resources. The two are so tightly linked, that we will not solve the global financial crisis until we start re-thinking how we can use resources more efficiently and sustainably. A potential battleground for the future has been laid, as these resources become more and more scarce. Planet RE:think investigates where we are failing and suggests what we can do to secure a future on a planet with finite resources.
“Hopefully our film will encourage the world to shift in a new direction, where the individual thinks more about the use of our resources. The way the world works today is simply not sustainable and over time it will cause even greater problems. However, the good news is, we can change this with relatively simple means and with a new mindset welcome to Planet RE:think”.

We are pleased to report on the ninth edition of the annual international Environmental Film Festival of Accra held from 28 June to 5 July 2013. Over 300 people including several school children gathered at KAMA Conference Center for the launch with its focus on health and the environment.
Children from Accra, Cape Coast and the Volta region were selected to participate in the Young Film Makers Workshops. This year they learned to make mixed media art pieces on the environment and take photographs, in addition to making a film on the environment.
The forum focused on three thematic areas: Climate Change, Degraded Environment & Flooding, Water and Sanitation and Natural Resources in plenary and small group discussions. Presentations by leaders in the field introduced the key issues.
A major highlight of EFFA 2013 was the free malaria testing for members of the public that took place at the Freedom and Justice Park, Kwame Nkrumah Circle.
