This repository recommends and repeats thought provoking resources about poverty reduction, climate change, environmental sustainability and human justice issues. Many of these problems are global problems, but they are experienced at the local level. Videography can highlight local-level problems and solutions, showcase applicable best practices, communicate distant realities across time and space, and inspire coordinated policy interventions. Some resources were used in my university teaching.
