Global Changemakers Documentary

International Students: Global Changemakers

International Students: Global Changemakers follows six globally minded students who have become changemakers through transformative experiences learning abroad. Students who, through learning in unfamiliar parts of the world, have overcome barriers, broadened their perspectives, and ultimately created impact in areas such as healthcare, climate change, technology, social justice initiatives, and beyond. This documentary short shows the impact that U of T students make on a global scale and highlights emerging leaders with a capacity to create change that truly matters.
