NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2024 ~ Las Vegas, NV - As the city geared up for this past Sunday's big game, Paramount Global (NASDAQ: PARA; PARAA) and its brands, along with industry affiliates and community partners, took the opportunity to shine a light on important societal issues. Through its Content for Change (CFC) initiative, Paramount Global is using the power of content to combat bias and harmful stereotypes and transform how the world sees people.
Over the course of the week leading up to the game, Paramount Global collaborated with artists, executives, athletes, and storytellers from diverse backgrounds to produce compelling content and host impactful conversations aimed at educating, inspiring, and driving lasting change.
One of the highlights of this effort was the CFC x CBS x NFL Vignettes. In partnership with CBS Sports and the NFL's Inspire Change program, Content for Change launched a series of six vignettes that aired on CBS' pregame show The NFL Today as well as on Paramount+ and CBS Sports platforms last month. These vignettes were created by BIPOC creators and featured athlete voices to champion topics such as mental health, diversity in education, women in the NFL, and social justice. The final vignette was narrated by Co-Founder of The Roots and critically acclaimed solo artist Black Thought and aired on game day. All six vignettes can be viewed on the Content for Change website.

Recognizing the power of art to spark meaningful conversations, Content for Change also unveiled its Murals For Change initiative in Las Vegas. Four public artworks by Indigenous American artists and activists Danielle SeeWalker , Gregg Deal, and Fawn Douglas were unveiled in collaboration with Native-led non-profit organization Tribal Minds. This initiative celebrates the Indigenous community and their untold stories within Nevada and beyond while aligning with Paramount's broader mission to champion underrepresented voices and reshape global perspectives. Additionally, Content for Change is providing philanthropic support to Tribal Minds through a grant for their 2024 summer arts program, which will support the long-term inspiration and artistic development of young indigenous voices.
Another impactful event was the Paramount Creators House, an exclusive, invitation-only event in Las Vegas that brought together industry executives, talent, and creatives. The event featured companies like the NFL, Microsoft, and presenting partner United Way and facilitated curated conversations on crucial topics such as mental health and wellness, LGBTQIA+ community inclusion, inclusive marketing, and voter engagement. Notable panelists included Solomon Thomas (New York Jets), Jonathan Jones (New England Patriots), 2023 Walter Payton Man of the Year nominees, and Dr. Nyaka NiiLampti (VP of NFL Wellness and Clinical Services).
