Social Impact Media Awards 2013

DEEDA Productions is a documentary production company and impact agency specialising in the global development sector. The Social Impact Media Awards seeks to promote the stories of independent filmmakers, grassroots change-makers, and humanitarian organisations that too often remain overlooked and to provide a springboard for creative and educational media to inspire change.

SIMA 2013 is looking for original, wise, brave, and creative productions that will increase the awareness of viewers to global injustices, to the resilience of humans facing depravation, to the politics of international aid, and to the efforts and agents of change in developing nations. SIMA will celebrate the work of filmmakers that raise important questions and inspire people to reflect on the meaning and potential of help for those in need.

Winners of Special Jury Awards will receive cash prises per each category. Winners and nominees will receive placement on the SIMA homepage and affiliated media outlets. They will also have the option be used in SIMA’s educational and humanitarian distribution network, which facilitates worldwide screenings of documentary films for community groups and aid organisations to encourage local community activism.
