Pachamama Alliance Global Community Gathering
The Pachamama Alliance event transformed their annual fundraising luncheon into a virtual Global Community Gathering, with four times as many attendees from thirty-two countries. Featured speakers included, founders, Lynne and Bill Twist, Jane Goodall and CNN commentator, Van Jones. The event included 73 pre-show networking sessions and community feeds from viewers around the world. The event also used green screen technology to place speakers into different thematic backgrounds, and to produce an animated representation of real-time fundraising data. The virtual event ended up raising as much money as the past live events. The show finale featured a Global Heartbeat with drummers from six countries and audience participation.
