SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Overall goal
ONE WORLD FILMCLUBS is an Austria-wide participatory project for young people (14-19 years) who explore important issues in our globalized world through documentary film.
The project enables them to establish a local One World Film Club in their immediate area to present and discuss award-winning documentaries with classmates and friends. The goal is for young people, within the framework of their One World Film Clubs, to engage intensively with human rights and the Global Goals for Sustainable Development, particularly gender equality, social justice, peace, the causes and effects of global inequalities, the environment, responsible consumption, global contexts, and societal/individual opportunities for action. The project promotes dialogue and critical reflection among young people and encourages them to get involved.

Some will include accompanying programs, such as a post-film discussion, attending an event, organizing a thematic focus at their school/youth center, etc.
An annual One World Film Club Award is presented by a youth jury.
A total of around 6,000 young people participate in the film club screenings; around 150,000 people are reached indirectly.
