Fast Forward is a series of short films that reframe the narrative around climate change by amplifying the voices of global citizens. The short films feature artists from Ethiopia, Senegal, and the United States, exploring a future achieved through global collaboration and inclusion of historically marginalized groups.

 

In my role, I focused on forging partnerships with NOWNESS to enhance the project's visibility and impact. I collaborated with the advisory board, which included leaders in climate and art, to secure their presence and support. I was instrumental in organizing screenings at premier venues such as Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (July 18, 2021), Pioneer Works (August 8, 2021), Times Square Arts (September 2021), Art Basel (September 2021), and TED Countdown in Edinburgh (October 12-15, 2021). ​​

 

This comprehensive approach garnered over 500,000 views online and was covered by The New Yorker: Climate Crisis Newsletter, COP 26, and many more.​​
