Empowering Action Takers

As they say, you can either be a good example to inspire or a bad example of warning, chasing to conceptualise your films through intentions of fear-mongering blame and shame or through intentions of LOVE, inspiration, entertainment, humour wonder and bliss. It is our challenge to you to chose love over fear in all of these challenges. There seem to be too many warning videos and perspectives of blame and dread in our media environment based on these subjects. This category is created to see how you can showcase the people on the grounds already in action for good, or creating inspirational videos that compel the youths to call to action. All great innovations need great communications to have traction and move mountains. How will you design this communication through your moving images, in this vertical medium of choice, in your own uniques voice?

‘WE GOT THIS’ YOUTH SUSTAINABILITY MOVEMENT
#WeGotThis (WGT) is a global youth sustainability incubator programme, presented by Temasek
Foundation and organised by WWF-Singapore, in collaboration with Green Is The New Black
and Grey Singapore. As a youth-led community movement targeted at youths between 18 to 25
years old, the programme creates a safe space for them to come together to be empowered to
take the lead in their own sustainable future, through social media advocacy.
Launched in Singapore in September 2021, WGT features masterclasses, a boot camp, as well
as a six-month practicum and mentorship incubator for sustainability doers and better world
seekers to learn about climate and sustainability, innovation, conscious living, and digital
advocacy. At the core of it is the programme’s unique advocacy-building approach, where youths
will be provided with the knowledge, skills and tools from speakers and mentors to design and
execute strategic sustainability advocacy campaigns on their chosen topic of interest, for them to
take action to build and drive change in their own social following and the larger community.
