Global Issues using films

In an increasingly visual environment, film is a powerful way to engage students in global education.

Use films from a variety of sources to help students engage with the wider world.

Develop students’ skills in visual literacy to assist in global awareness and to promote understanding, tolerance and acceptance of cultural, religious and political differences.

Help students to learn how to interpret the complexities of different points of view and contextualise them through historical, geographical, cultural, economic, political and environmental lenses.

Teach students to read the many layers in the visual images by asking questions about the environment and the interaction of people and their values.
