*Call for Documentary/Activist Films, Video Art Projects and Activist 
Talks***

*11^th Annual IIPPE Conference – 12–19 September 2021, online***

*/The Pandemic and the Future of Capitalism: On the Political Economy of 
our Societies and Economies/**//*

**

The Committee on Activism at the International Initiative for the 
Promotion of Political Economy (IIPPE) is inviting submissions of film 
and video art projects, and activist talks for our next annual conference.

IIPPE is one of the largest international networks of heterodox 
political economists with a critical approach to neoliberal capitalism. 
The IIPPE Committee on Activism aims to provide a platform through which 
academics, artists, filmmakers and activists who are working for a more 
just and equal world can meet, share and discuss their work and 
establish collaborations.

The Committee on Activism programme will run in parallel with the 
academic conference and is open to a variety of formats, including film 
screenings, discussions, performances or more conventional academic 
papers. We are looking for projects and initiatives that offer a 
critical engagement with economics and capitalism, including but not 
limited to ecological, decolonial, feminist, labour, migrant and 
marginalised perspectives. Work that deals with the Covid crisis and its 
multiple repercussions in social, political and environmental spheres is 
also encouraged.

Documentary filmmakers and video artists are invited to submit work of 
around 20 – 90 minutes duration, to be screened followed by a 
discussion. Please include a preview link with your abstract. Activist 
presentations or workshops may be of a similar duration. Films which do 
not have English as their main language must have English subtitles. 
Work will be screened as a digital video file, and the creator of the 
work or a representative with significant involvement in research or 
production must be present for the discussion session.

*Please submit your proposal by May 15, 2021, via the Electronic 
Proposal Form (EPF)**, which can be found at *http://iippe.org
