Laura Longobardi

Head of Impact and Industry
International Film Festival and Forum on Human Rights (FIFDH)

Laura has been involved in the documentary industry for over 20 years. Over the last few years, she has developed a growing interest in outreach and impact productions. In 2019, she launched the Impact Days: The first ever industry event entirely focused on impacts within the framework of the FIFD, a leading international film festival on human rights in Geneva. This event is dedicated to international filmmakers wishing to have an impact with their documentaries and connect to the numerous changemakers operating in the region. It is composed of an Impact Lab, curated networking opportunities with NGOs, foundations and international organisations, as well as other impact activities. Laura's main interest is the intersection between human rights activism and storytelling.
