ICFLIX Partners With United Nations to Raise Awareness of Global Issues

DUBAI, UAE, March 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --



Sometimes to get a social message across, a documentary film is all you need. The
partnership between icflix and the United Nations brings about an award-winning television
series that reports on the work of the UN and its Agencies across the world.



The three to five minute features illustrate the UN peacekeeping efforts as well as
projects aimed at reducing poverty and human suffering, fighting disease, providing
humanitarian assistance and stimulating growth.



"Many people are unaware of the on-the-ground work carried out by the United Nations
and it's Agencies," said Carlos Tibi, CEO icflix. "It is our aim to spotlight the
important agenda of the United Nations to raise awareness of important issues of our
time," Tibi, further added.



Along with the UN in Action series, 26-minute documentary features by 21st Century aim
to put a spotlight on some of the world's forgotten stories, where they have reported from
more than 90 countries around the world covering global issues such as conflict and human
rights violations; natural disasters; women's issues; poverty and development; refugees;
drugs and crimes; music and culture; climate change and the environment.



The documentaries will be available worldwide in English, Arabic and French languages.
