The Science Film Festival in Vietnam operates with the principle of empowerment. Schools and teachers are not merely beneficiaries of the project; they are inspired and empowered to become active contributors. Teachers are encouraged to take the lead, organizing film screenings for their students, thereby playing a central role in delivering enriching educational experiences. This approach fosters a sense of ownership and initiative, enabling schools and educators to create learning opportunities through the medium of science films. This year, over 300 dedicated teachers from more than 250 schools across 40 provinces in Vietnam have registered to become science ambassadors for the project. In this role, they bring captivating scientific films and hands-on learning experiences to students of various age groups, helping to nurture a love for science in classrooms nationwide.
