Launching One World Social Innovation Competition 2012!
As well as in 2011, One World aims to bring together the best examples of how NGOs, local initiatives, government initiatives and activists – to name a few – are using technology, social media and mobile communication to make a real positive impact.One World is the largest and very influential human rights film festival in the world and is firmly established as one of the premier cultural and media events.
