How can Europeans build a more sustainable food industry? The EU is leading the way, with a “farm to fork” strategy which seeks to rethink how we produce, distribute and eat our food. INS created a series of impactful videos for DG SANTE to underline the role every part of society can play in revolutionising our food chain for the 21st century.
The project included the production of social content and strategic dissemination advice.

In advance of a key EU-African Union summit, the hosts asked young people from Europe and Africa to come together in Brussels and Addis Ababa to propose their “dream agenda” and ambitions for the event.
At the heart of the campaign was football superstar Didier Drogba, filmed at his training ground in Minneapolis by a local crew, with the production expertly coordinated by INS from our headquarters.

The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) runs an innovative pilot programme, ORION, designed to support voluntary returnees during reinsertion into their home countries.
INS was proud to be asked to showcase this important and impactful project in a video shot across the African continent, produced with our colleagues at the Africa News Agency in Kigali.

The annual Sakharov Prize is awarded by the European Parliament to people who have dedicated their lives to democracy and freedom.
In 2020, the S&D political group asked INS to showcase their candidate – the democratic opposition in Belarus, nominated collectively via their Coordination Council.
The activists eventually went on to win the Prize, and we subsequently also produced the official winners’ clip on behalf of the European Parliament.

The majority of Cambodia’s population are farmers. For centuries, they have relied on the monsoon but climate change makes it unpredictable.
A new digital application, the Khmer Smart Farming app, helps farmers to adapt.
The EU-funded app provides weather forecasts, and information on crops and planting techniques.
Every year, EU Humanitarian Aid supports projects that make communities safer around the world – and INS produced and directed the videos which showcase their important work.

Every year Cambodians experience at least one extreme weather event. Millions of people are affected, but one phone call can save hundreds of lives.
A “1294” call in Cambodia can reach 1,000 households in only 1 minute.
Thanks to EU Humanitarian Aid and People in Need, the “1294” early warning system will be available countrywide in 2020. Every year, EU Humanitarian Aid supports projects that make communities safer around the world – and INS produced and directed the videos which showcase their important work.

The 2019 Fundamental Rights Survey asked tens of thousands of Europeans about their views of human rights, and the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights tasked INS with presenting the key findings.
We produced and directed this video – the first of many productions we have since undertaken for FRA.

At the end of President Macky Sall’s first term in office, INS produced a feature-length documentary – accompanied by 11 short films – assessing the progress made by his government.
We were granted unprecendented access to the inner workings of the Sall administration, as well as shooting on location across the country and drawing on over five years of archive material to produce this comprehensive insight into a modern African democracy in action.

In 2012, the EU won the Nobel Peace Prize, and pledged the prize money to initiatives designed to help children around the world.
INS was asked to produce a “state of play” video for the subsequent Educating in Emergencies programme, supporting young people’s learning in conflict-stricken communities across the globe.
We crossed the world for this unique and inspiring production, and since 2012 we’ve produced multiple video news releases (VNRs) on the same topic – a testament to our expertise.

The EU Investment Project Portal (EIPP) is an online platform which matches innovative European start-ups with the expertise and investment they need to grow.
INS has produced and directed numerous testimonials which present the EIPP’s many success stories across Europe – including this production in Copenhagen, in which we meet Sebastian Khunert, the founder of Tradimo, to hear about how the EIPP helped his idea to blossom.
