La red Planet Classroom has launched its programming schedule with 28 Organizaciones culturales comprometidas con la programación global. Organized by CMRubinWorld, the Season 1 Line-Up presenta una Feria Mundial de Aprendizaje de 6 meses en YouTube para jóvenes por jóvenes que incluye programación de videos originales.
The Network’s Spring programming will focus on Global Stewardship, Indigenous Voices, Celebrating the Identity Spectrum, Keeping Creativity Alive and Prescriptions for Global Unity.
Podcasts for the Planet Classroom Network will be hosted by “Orb,” who will be the audience’s virtual guide through the Aula planeta podcast shows in connection with VoiceAmerica. UNESCO’s Assistant Director-General, Stefania Giannini, will be joined by youth around the world for the inaugural show. Youth will discuss video programming appearing on the Network and share their passions, Ideas, and solutions for creating the future they want. Podcast themes will include how youth are tackling the societal challenges the world is experiencing, now amplified by a global pandemic. How can empowered youth voices push our governing institutions to make choices that promote the wellbeing of the many, rather than the few? What are youth’s solutions to a polarized world? What are their solutions for strengthening the links between creativity and society at a time when art and artists are needed more than ever?
Planet Classroom Network Season 1 programming will represent creators from over 50 countries and include over 150 películas, danza, música, video game, and art videos as well as VidOps and workshops featuring innovative youth start-ups, all of which have been created for youth or by youth.
Notable film and video presentations in Season 1 include Director Christopher Carpenter’s Stephen Hawking y yo, which showcases our potential to do anything we set our minds to. SIMA Classroom presents Lucan Guilkey’s BAFTA Award winning film, ¿Qué pasó con Dujuan Armstrong?, about holding officials accountable for the inhumane treatment of young African-Americans.

Directed by Nicky Newman, Del mismo suelo portrays the lives of two gay men and one transgender woman who left their home countries because of discrimination and persecution.

Audiences will have free access to a global collection of films which champion the voices and efforts of youth around the world.
