Episode Summary
On this episode, we are featuring 3 students, Abigayle, Aalaya, and Aarna, from Hyderabad Public School in India. These young changemakers are in grade 11 and their class, along with their teacher, Pratibha Dhal, have been recognized globally as SIMA Changemaker Award recipients. Join me to learn about how watching documentary films from SIMA Academy inspired their work as leaders and changemakers to address issues connected to resource use, upcycling, westernized beauty standards, and equal access to quality education in their community. Their projects on creating audiobooks for students with vision impairment, an upcycle fashion show featuring their teachers as characters from Greek mythology, and a more natural and authentic look at beauty in their community are truly inspirational. Listen to learn more.
