Apparently, the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals have alerted more actors to the fact that cross-sector partnership collaboration is a promising route to pursue.
Hence, we have been very busy working in Denmark for among others the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, The Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Copenhagen Municipality – assisting these clients in their efforts to design, refine and role out comprehensive partnership strategies.
Similarly, KJAER ADVICE has worked in the US organizing training for public sector officials.
Or in Southern Africa, assisting the design of a comprehensive public-private partnership program.

 

This year is coming to an end – lots of interesting work is waiting to be unfolded in the coming year.

 

Thank you to all clients and partners!

KJAER ADVICE leads workshop to design pilot projects in Colombia and Kenya.
Grow Film Alliance (GFA) supports initiatives that promote independent film making, advance audience building and engage communities. It is the belief that all communities and countries can enhance tolerance and involvement in societal matters when watching, reflecting and discussing films about their own culture, in their own languages. Across the world individuals and groups are producing films that have the potential to advance democracy and engage and inform communities. However, in underdeveloped film cultures many films never reach their prospective national audience.

 

GFA is formed in 2015. Moving into the implementation phase, the Alliance will support pilot project development in Colombia and Kenya.
