IOM Film Festival at ISB – December 11th
SAVE THE DATE – December 11th
Join the film screening at ISB that forms part of the IOM Global Migration Film Festival.
“Over the years, films have been used to inform, entertain, educate and provoke debate. It is in this spirit that IOM, the UN Migration Agency, launched The Global Migration Film Festival (GMFF) in 2016.”
“It features films and documentaries that capture the promise and challenges of migration, and the unique contributions that migrants make to their new communities. The goal of the festival is to pave the way for greater discussion around one of the greatest phenomenon of our time.”https://www.iom.int/global-migration-film-festival

International Tables at IFF 2020
The International Tables at IFF were designed with our smaller communities in mind. Please consider participating!
It will be a great chance to showcase your national cuisine and specialties without having to commit to your own booth.
For the International Table at IFF, cooking just one batch of your preferred recipe is fine!
You can decorate your space allocation should you wish to and you do not have to stay at the table!
If you are travelling home for the break, then please consider contributing some of your local food or gift items. (And if you’re staying here and have visitors from home then perhaps ask them to bring something.)
We can put together a “country basket” or have your items included in the silent auction.
There are also spots available for children who would like to join the Unity Performance on the day.
Please use this link to sign up for IFF 2020 and the Unity Performance
