Vulnerability Exposed: Social Dimensions of Climate Change

Launched by the Social Development Department, World Bank in August 2008, "Vulnerability Exposed: Social Dimensions of Climate Change" was a global competition to produce 2to5 minute documentaries that highlight the social aspects of climate change as experienced or observed by the film-makers. During the two month submission period, the World Bank received more than 100 entries from professional and amateur film-makers and from both developed and developing countries alike. In January 2009, eight filmmakers and producers from around the world collected awards for their micro-documentaries at a special ceremony held in Washington, DC.

This video provides an overview of the film contest as well as the World Bank's program on the Social Dimensions of Climate Change.
