Next Wave International™ is a faith-based communications group >which is training organizations to engage the future & move society forward in a positive direction. Founder / Director: Mal Fletcher
Last week, the team recorded Mal's pieces to camera, which drive each of the documentaries, on two hot issues: 'Human Trafficking: The New Slavery' and 'Youth Violence and Gangs'.
The latter was filmed in Peckham, London, which some are calling 'England's Bronx' because of a long list of youth murders over the past few years, including the infamous case of Damilola Taylor.
(Read Mal's Social Comment editorial on youth violence - click here.)
Meanwhile, other segments in production include the ever popular vox pops, expert interviews, 'around-the-table' and more.
Production now takes place in four nations of the world and the full series of ten half-hour magazine documentaries will take more than ten months to complete.
The series is slated for completion at the end of September 2008, which means it will likely hit TV screens (and the web) early in 2009.

I heard Mal speak at the Emerge Conference in Brisbane. Thanks for reminding us that Gen-Xers can create, build and mould the world NOW by being proactive rather than reactive. Kabamba, Australia
For Mal Fletcher: thank you kindly for the nice words about my book, "No Time To Think: The Menace of Media Speed and the 24-hour News Cycle". Glad you enjoyed it and felt a need to comment on it. Charles, United States
