The Better World Fund, the Paris-based non-profit organization raising awareness on critical global issues, presents Food, Health & Sustainability—a series of prestigious events.
 
The event will be bestowed with the gracious participation of S.E Madame Dominique Ouattara, First Lady of Côte d’Ivoire, HRH Princess Ghida Talal, as well as the internationally recognized actress, producer, humanitarian, and New York Times bestselling author of The Beauty of Living Twice, Sharon Stone and Kiera Chaplin at Cannes, France on May 22-23, 2022.
 
In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the two-day event aims to raise awareness on the immediate need to change our agricultural and eating practices to take better care of our health, and our planet by uniting filmmakers, writers, scientists, environmentalists, activists and business leaders to explore and provide tangible efforts to address the environment, biodiversity, and climate challenges.
 

“We hope for the support of the film community to serve the suffering people of Ukraine. It has been my experience in Cannes that we can actively serve those in need, i am grateful for this opportunity.”

Sharon Stone

Culture and movies in particular have a key role to play to raise awareness about the main humanitarian and sustainability issues of our time. Climate change, food waste, the carbon footprint and tremendous impact of food on our health are slow poisons that can ruin generations. It is time to act now, together and fast and I am delighted to be able to bring spotlight to food security for all, including children and those affected by conflict, on the occasion of the Cannes Film Festival.

Manuel Collas de La Roche

 

"I am happy that Africa and particularly Ivory Coast are highlighted by the Better World Endowment Fund. I am very touched by this and I hope that it will encourage other initiatives to give a better future to the children of Africa."

 

Dominique Ouattara, First Lady of Côte d'Ivoire
