“Stand with Courage” - We can make a difference! Film screening and Q&A with the director

What do sustainability and political resistance have in common? It takes courage to stand up for one’s values in the face of great adversity.

We warmly invite you to a special screening of the documentary Stand with Courage, by impact filmmaker Carl Eneroth.

About the movie

The documentary follows sustainable development thought leader Sandrine Dixson-Declève as she traces the footsteps of her grandfather, who was part of the resistance in Belgium during World War II. Through her journey, Sandrine urgently warns of the dangers of allowing dehumanization to take hold in our societies, reducing people to symbols rather than recognizing their humanity. At the same time, she reflects on how we can redirect our attention to the pressing challenges of our time, such as climate change—and how meaningful change often begins with the everyday act of speaking out against injustice.

Sandrine drew strength from her grandfather’s courage. Inspired by this, we invite you to reflect together after the screening on how our own grandparents—and their stories, values, and experiences—can inspire our courageous action and progress today.

Trigger warning: the documentary deals with and shows images from the Holocaust. Please feel free to leave the event at any time and talk to the organizing team if you feel uncomfortable.

Q&A with Carl Eneroth

Following the film, there will be an open conversation and Q&A with the film’s director, Carl Eneroth. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, share your reflections, and be part of a meaningful exchange.

Whether you are interested in sustainability, social change, or personal stories of courage, you are very welcome to join us and we look forward to welcoming you.

Practical information

Coffee and tea will be provided, and cake will be available for purchase as part of our graduation fundraising. Please note that, due to the valuable artwork in the auditorium (decorative carpet), refreshments may only be consumed outside the auditorium.
