Film has a unique ability to convey the essence of a social challenge in ways that arouse people’s emotions, change their perspectives, and motivate them to act.
Through the Gleitsman Social Change Film Forum (GSCFF), the Center for Public Leadership (CPL) connects a highly motivated generation of Harvard students that seek to change the world with the art and craft of making films. For CPL, whose mission is to develop leaders dedicated to the common good, the GSCFF is a rare opportunity to inspire and motivate students and connect them with others who are committed to social change.
