Difference as a Resource for Peace: Voices of SDG16+ from Guatemala and Switzerland
07.06.2019
The civil war in Guatemala is over but the situation remains eruptive. Researchers, local protagonists and science filmmakers take into focus diverse reframings of past and present social conflicts in Guatemala and provide insights for ending violence and for sustaining peace, justice and inclusion.
This video-clip was submitted to the Call for “Voices of SDG16+: Stories for Global Action”, a video competition in the run-up to the High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development 2019 of the United Nations. It uses footage collected in the participatory filmmaking process with researchers, local protagonists and science filmmakers from five countries around the world, resulting in the research documentary “Inequality and Conflict – Beyond us and them”,premiered on 4 November 2019 during the Geneva Peace Week 2019, Switzerland, and on 7 November 2019 in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
