This just in from Crocevia.
Dear Friends,
Greetings from Rome. We are very proud to present you the fifth edition of the International Audiovisual Festival on Biodiversity, a funded project of Centro Internazionale Crocevia taking place in Rome on 24th and 25th October.
The Festival was born to promote experiences and activities that NGOs and local partners worldwide are carrying out to protect the environment and, in particular, its biodiversity. During the festival, national and international documentaries related to the environment, biodiversity and food sovereignty will be presented, followed by performances of local artists famous for their social commitment and special attention they give to the local traditions.
For the first time this year, the participating documentaries will be also available on-line on ARCOIRIS TV http://www.arcoiris.tv/. During two weeks before the official event in Rome, the audience will thus have the chance to see the videos and participate at the festival by choosing their favourite documentary.
We would like you to promote among your partners or in your website the festival and video request, as we would be pleased to include your last works in our event. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for further request or info.
Best regards,
Centro Internazionale Crocevia
Please contact me for a scientific and technical collaboration on this interesting festival. Although not ready for an official patronage (our Agency is under administrative and organisative restructurisation) I’d like to promote all initiatives to conserve and protect biodiversity, especially in our Country.
I am a soil biologist, see our website
