Vision

Environmental films are a powerful convener and catalyst, transcending generations, cultures, disciplines, and borders. In a world where the medium flourishes, we not only confront the challenges we face, but also envision the possibilities that can result from a resilient, thriving planet.

Goals

1. 1.Increase revenue to support program growth by hiring a full-time Director of Development. Having a staff member who is wholly dedicated to these efforts is integral to our Strategic Planning goals and our near- and long-term viability as an organization.
2. 2.Based in the nation’s capital, DCEFF is uniquely positioned to convene storytellers, policymakers, and activists. With more deliberate effort, tracking, and reporting, we can strengthen our role as a convener and increase our impact during this pivotal time for the environment.
3. 3.DCEFF is refocusing on core programs like youth education to foster informed, engaged young environmental stewards. After pandemic disruptions, we’re scaling back non-core efforts to deepen impact where it matters most—empowering the next generation to build a healthier, sustainable world.
