PCI Media - Annual Report 2019

Letter from our President
Dear PCI Media Friends,
In 2019 I served as PCI Media’s Executive Director.
I am proud to serve as President. My
experience in and passion for education will
continue to support our mission to improve
lives using the power of Entertainment-Education
and creative communications.
As we reflect on our successes and programs in 2019, we thank our
many partners for making positive change possible. Whether providing
funding for a new production, subject matter expertise, or
broadcast support –our partners make it possible for PCI Media to
produce the stories that touch people’s hearts, expand their minds
and generate action for a better world.
Across the globe, the challenges we face require more than technical
solutions—they demand learning, shifts in mindsets, and meaningful
cultural changes:
• Climate change is beginning to impact how we live in ways we are
only starting to experience and understand. It is imperative that
communities adapt or they will perish.
• Increasingly, pandemics like Ebola and COVID-19 underscore the
need for better sanitation practices, health literacy, nutrition, and
awareness of the health impacts of illegal trade in wildlife.
• Patterns of economic and social inequity and instability continue
to be replicated when girls, women, boys, and men are denied access
to basic human rights.
