Just Futures Impact Story Lab 2025 is an initiative made in collaboration with @thedocsociety@alternativa.film.sea , developed from The Doc Society’s Climate and Democracy Story Lab and organised for Southeast Asia region by @indocs@impact.docs
Back from Bali with new ideas, connections, and courage to tell stories that move people✨
At the Just Futures Impact Story Lab, we shared space with bold creators and changemakers across Asia and beyond. What we brought back is more than lessons — it’s a reminder that impact storytelling thrives in community, across borders, and in many forms.
Thank you to our partners Doc Society, In-Docs and GIPA members for being part of this global network for change.
This is what keeps us building spaces where cinema and storytelling grow into action 🤍
Let’s rewind and hear our Facilitator, Promoter, and Allies reflect on the cross-collaborative space they are part of and actively empower!
