The film festival will culminate in an awards ceremony where winners will be announced. The winners will also be acknowledged at the closing ceremony of the World Cancer Congress on 31 August 2008.
Reel Lives Film Festival Mission

The Reel Lives: The Cancer Chronicles Film Festival mission is to honour those whose lives have been impacted by cancer and increase awareness of the continuing impact of this disease as a global health issue. The festival seeks to shatter taboos and myths surrounding the disease (from research to personal accounts), educate and enlighten people around the world, bridge cultural divides, and help unite the global cancer community.

The film festival is an opportunity for people who have been touched by cancer to tell their story through the medium of film. Reel Lives: The Cancer Chronicles Film Festival allows their voice to be heard. The awards will celebrate films that are thought provoking, educational and inspirational.

This Summit will continue the work started in 2006, and will incorporate changes based on last year's feedback from the first (Los Angeles) and second (Sydney) Summit. One of these changes will be a greater emphasis on developing media production skills. Also, the student delegates will be broadcasting on a daily basis via Serbian Broadcasting Corporation, Radio, internet Radio, podcasting and vodcasting...

We are asking those countries with the ability to raise the necessary funds to provide their own airfare to Belgrade, Serbia.

(We are looking for delegates who will continue to advocate, addressing Summit issues locally, regionally, nationally and internationally at all times.

* Student delegates will need to complete their initial assignments and submit them to 3rd IYMS organizers.
