Description

In light of a recent court ruling against genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and the booming of the Metro Manila restaurant scene, the three aforementioned films were made, each five minutes long. The films incorporate the findings of a research project conducted by the University of Lausanne and The Graduate Institute Geneva, in partnership with the Institute of Philippine Culture of the Ateneo de Manila University, the Swiss Network for International Studies, as well as partners at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the International Labour Organization (ILO).
