Question: Videos of the Green Belt Movement

I'm looking for a video on the Green Belt movement in Kenya, initiated by Professor Maathai who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004.

There are some clips on the Internet, but I'm looking for a documentary or video of at least 30-60 minutes.

Answer: Videos of the Green Belt Movement

It does not look promising for buying or renting films, unless you have time to feally plow through dozens or more likely hundreds of web sites, in search of practical sources to borrow or rent.

A few libraries DO have what may be what you are after, judging from a Worldcat search of keywords: "green belt movement" restricted to "visual materials":

Google.com search: "Africa, search for common ground program 12" gets 8 hits but all seem to be talking about use of it only on site at Columbia University or other colleges, by students, etc.

Google search: "women at work" "green belt movement" is possibly more promising, if you want to rent or buy the video. http://omgsic.com/traditional_women.htm has "Women at Work" in a list of films, and has a "Request a Quote" link at the top. But even searches like: "women at work" "belbo productions" seem to get mostly lists, not sources to order or rent.

But I am having a lot of trouble finding more than 1 potential source (omgsic.com) to buy or rent these — it may well be that the only surviving copies are at a few libraries (See Worldcat printouts at top of this message)

Do these films from Worldcat even seem like what you are after?
