The World Health Organization is thrilled to announce the commencement of the 5th Health for All Film Festival competition (HAFF), featuring a Special Film Prize focused on Physical Activity and Health. This unique opportunity beckons individuals and communities to share their narratives, illuminating the transformative health advantages of physical activity.

The film festival acts as a stage to display the impact of physical activity on various levels—from personal stories to community initiatives, health facilities, and even national endeavors. The belief is that each story harbors the potential to inspire positive change and contribute to the global discourse on health for all.

Key dates and submission guidelines are as follows:

Submission period: November 1, 2023, to January 31, 2024.

Reasons to participate:

  1. Global Impact: Shortlisted among 90 films, your submission can reach a global audience, enriching the broader dialogue on health and well-being.
  2. Special Film Prize: The festival will honor a film focusing on Physical Activity and Health with a Special Prize. This is a chance to stand out and be acknowledged, with WHO also offering a fee to the winner for their copyright for longer-term use.
  3. Inspire Change: Your story has the power to inspire individuals, communities, and decision-makers to prioritize physical activity as a vital component of a healthy lifestyle.
