Filmmakers from different countries participate in Erronka Munduan, a solidarity challenge promoted by the Kino Kursaal Association which is added now EITB and that aims to give visibility to films about human rights.

Through its EITB Nahieran platform, EITB joins the Erronka Munduan movement for human rights promoted by the Kursaal Kino Association, which aims to contribute to achieving greater dissemination and raising awareness among the population of the important social challenges that our society as a whole faces.
