A social impact campaign starts with one thing: inspiration. Here, students will watch a lineup of SIMA films curated by the educator and create an impact advocacy campaign in their schools and communities.

Inspire the young changemakers in your classroom with award-winning short documentaries and VR experiences from around the world that bring global human rights, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), social innovations and entrepreneurship to life.
