World Bank office in Kenya published 500 copies of DVDs without my consent and branded the film as their funded Project, am sick of World Bank's lack of respect to copyright and media ethics.
How can World Bank publish a film project and brand without the Bank's input?????? any lawyer to assist me claim my copyright and damage? I did not sign any agreement with World Bank!

I learnt so much from the youth I spent time with in Kibera. I learnt more importantly that they too have stories that they want to tell the world. Stories showcasing their talent and creativity. Felix thanks for the great opportunity to work and learn alongside you. It has been privilege. Ken

Working with youth from low income background in Kibera was a great honor and chance to mentor emerging news and filmmakers. This award is just one of efforts and talents to be realized.
