People always come first, therefore we use a human centred approach in everything we do. This technique puts real people at the centre of our development process. This enables us to create products and services that resonate and are tailored to your audience’s needs.
Our ambition is to help people advance in life. We do this through what we know to do best; communication. Since 2008 we have been working hard to empower NGOs and UN organisations worldwide. This has led us to gain a lot of knowledge on many development-related topics. And we share this knowledge whenever we can.
Beyond Borders Media follows the Do No Harm Principles (DNH). “Do no harm” is to avoid exposing people to additional risks through your actions. This means taking a step back when needed to look at the broader context and mitigate potential negative effects on the social fabric, the economy and the environment, caused by our activities. In our work, we are always aware of their potential consequences.
Some project subjects are easy to talk about, while others deal with more sensitive topics. What is normal in one country can be taboo in another country, like Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights or Human Rights for example. Beyond Borders Media has gained experience and awareness working with sensitive topics, and can help your organisations to navigate through these cultural and political sensitivities.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda has our full support. Beyond Borders Media’s aim is to contribute to these goals, which we do through our work together with the clients we are working for.
I have worked with Beyond Borders Media in one of the most remote areas in Mali, and in a complex security and humanitarian context. I was really mesmerized by how much the BBM team members have adapted and delivered quality content that we used for our social media platforms across the world. Their ethics as a media and dedication in shedding light on vulnerable populations’ needs are exemplary. Their work is based on empathy, integrity, and portraying the truth. I will definitely be pleased to work with BBM again.
IOM worked together with Beyond Borders Media in a worldwide activity on the production of audiovisual materials on migrant return and sustainable reintegration, covering Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America. In all target countries Beyond Borders Media successfully and professionally worked alongside local and international IOM staff to engage beneficiaries, partners, donors and other stakeholders in the video production activities, and always proved to be flexible and reactive to the challenges that might arise.
Working with Beyond Borders Media on audiovisual production operations in North Africa and Senegal, I have dealt with highly professional teams who have the sense of creativity that is a prerequisite for effective development communication and resource mobilization processes. Their technical and editorial skills make them a first-choice operator as shown by their productions.
