At the Global Media Center for Social Impact (GMI), we believe that compelling stories have the power to transform popular culture and catalyze social change. GMI works to unleash the transformative potential of storytelling by supporting writers in their efforts to create the most captivating and realistic stories possible on issues of social value. We provide the entertainment industry with free, on-demand access to leading experts and cutting-edge resources on topics such as health, immigration, racial justice, America’s prison crisis, the environment, LGBT/gender equality, learning and attention issues, youth sexuality, reproductive health and rights and more. From script reviews and writers’ room consultations to off-site visits and special events, GMI facilitates experiences for industry professionals that inspire them to create stories that entertain, engage, and empower viewers to make change on issues that matter to them.
