Eyes Wide Open wins Gold World Medal

We’re pleased to announce that Eyes Wide Open has been awarded the Gold World Medal for Instruction & Education at the 2018 New York Festivals International TV & Films Awards!  

Eyes Wide Open is a short awareness raising and training film developed by Stronger Together South Africa to highlight the indicators of forced labour in the South African fruit and wine producing industries.

Stronger Together South Africa is a partnership programme delivered by Stronger Together, the Wine and Agricultural Ethical Trade Association (WIETA) and the Sustainability Initiative of South Africa (SIZA). The programme is designed to support South African fruit and wine producers to address and reduce the risks of forced labour in their businesses and supply chains through free interactive training workshops and specialist pragmatic resources including a best practice toolkit.
