Ever learned something new by talking to someone from a different country? Have you participated in an international school project? Or considered doing your own intercultural project?  Sound interesting to you?  Then make a film about your international school project and enter our contest!  And if you don’t already have a project to film, find a partner at a school somewhere else in the world and design a project with them. 

With your film you – students and your teachers here and at your partner school abroad – will present the project you did with your partners online.  In a video clip no longer than 3 minutes, document the project that you did, or are currently doing, with students and teachers from another country.

Who is eligible to participate?

Students and teachers from Germany, who have already completed one or more projects with a partner school abroad or who define and complete a project for this competition.   All schools worldwide who have a partner school in Germany that they have completed, or will complete, a project with.

Your video should:

1. be informative and explain your project
2. tell something about your school and your partner school
3. be funny and creative.
4. most importantly, your video should show how much fun it is to expand your horizons and see the world through someone else’s eyes!

We are looking for projects between partner schools that best demonstrate the spirit of the international learning community, the connection between cultures and joint efforts to address common challenges people will face in the future. 

The jury will select the best submissions and award the prizes.
