Thomas Behrens is a media producer and documentary film director with a PhD from the University of Lisbon, Faculty of Fine Arts- Audiovisual Media and 5+ years of teaching experience. My passion is to create meaningful content that engages and empowers the audience to become more compassionate with themselves and with others.

One central purpose of my work is to observe different environments and learn from cybernetics, system and design thinkers, especially with regard to viable systems models. My research in the fields of communication, arts and psychology then always informs my creative work and vice versa. Visit my website here.
