UNESCO: Global Citizenship Education
UNESCO

This animation aims to paint a picture of optimism and hope for education worldwide. Matt Smithson collaborated with the talented Jimmy Simpson to create the visuals for this piece and was given a wide berth to explore the creative direction by UNESCO.

The United Nations Secretary-General launched the Global Education First Initiative (GEFI) in 2012 to spur renewed efforts to reach global education goals. By rallying a broad spectrum of world leaders and advocates, GEFI aims to raise the political profile of education, inspire new partnerships and mobilize additional funding to deliver on the promise of Education for All.
