Eileen Park Robertson

Eileen Park Robertson is the founder and award-winning filmmaker of Anecdotia, a production agency focused exclusively on climate, racial, and social justice storytelling. Currently, she is working with national and subnational governments, international agencies, and non-profits on the frontlines of global climate negotiations.
