A Unique View On The Projects - CBM Spots

An old man no longer has to bear the jokes of little children, who tease him because they know that he is blind—this and other life-changing moments could have happened in CBM-supported projects.

The spot showing the old man, whose sight was restored with a cataract operation, as well as other spots, are fictional and reflect the programme work of CBM in a fun way, even though the day-to-day work in the more than 1000 CBM projects overseas can also be challenging to clients, staff, and expatriate coworkers.

TV spots and short films produced by CBM’s national member associations represent many different creative ways of presenting CBM’s programme work. Have fun watching!
