The LOVEBACK project seeks to develop counterterrorism ideologies using performing arts, sports, trade and entertainment. We believe we can help support Governments to formulate a more thoughtful response to violence and terror by giving people varied options of constructive engagement across different levels of society.
How do we wish to create awareness?
- By identifying examples of creative responses to acts of terror and producing documentaries and short films on them
- Making the example(s) the face of the campaign at this stage
- Championing activities that highlight the example(s) of the LOVEBACK ideology through extensive advertisement via all forms of media including social media.
Methods of raising funds (non-exhaustive):
- Engage and partner with individuals, other Charities and religious communities we know seeking support and substantial donations.
- Take the campaign to churches in the UK and abroad, whether we know them or not, and seek to set up affordable monthly subscriptions or donations of £1, £5, £10 or £20.
- Draw a list of well-placed individuals and organisations that may be willing to endorse and support the campaign in one way or another.
- Seek government funding through grants and, or financial aid.
- Review the creative organisations that are already championing the course, study their work and explore how we foster strategic alliances to raise support in funds or kind.
Purpose of funds:
- Creating audio-visual content and programs to facilitate a wholesome response to terror and violence in communities across the UK and beyond.
