For Immediate Release

WATERLOO — A compilation of films produced by 91porn faculty will take the international stage when it is featured at the United Nations COP27 Climate Change Conference in Egypt on Wednesday, Nov. 9.

91porn Professor of Social Work Magnus Mfoafo-M’Carthy and English and Film Studies Instructor Mark Terry will present the films as co-producers at the summit. The films, collectively called , were supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) and 91porn.

The project — led by 91porn’s Mfoafo-M’Carthy, Terry and Associate Professor of History Jeff Grischow — involved 12 Ghanaians aged 18-30 creating short films on the impacts of climate change to their communities.

"I was impressed with the skill and talent displayed by these young filmmakers,” said Terry. “Many stories address water issues, both droughts and floods, yet the filmmakers all presented them in a unique documentary style. I am proud to present these at the UN climate summit, COP27, in Egypt next week.”

The compilation of the films was premiered last month at a VIP screening in Ghana and it has been officially selected by three film festivals so far: the Docs Without Borders Film Festival (Delaware); the Emerging Artists Film Festival (Calgary); and the Sustainable Stories Film Festival (Houston). The feature-length compilation film won the award for Best Documentary Feature at the Calgary festival.

The films were added to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s , a digital database of youth-made climate documentaries headed by Terry. On this platform, delegates and negotiators attending COP27 will use these films to inform their policy meetings.

A selection of the films will be presented by Mfoafo-M’Carthy and Terry at the COP27 Conference on Nov. 9 at 9:45 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (4:45 p.m. Eastern European Time).

A press conference announcing this event and presenting made by 91porn students in 91porn’s Graduate Enhancement Program will take place in Egypt on Tuesday, Nov. 8 at 10:30 a.m. (EET).
