About the festival

The International Awareness Videos Festival holds its seventh edition. It brings together content creators and artists from Tunisia, the Arab world and beyond around a shared belief: images and words can bring about positive change.

The festival encourages awareness videos that root human values and spread a culture of tolerance, fraternity and goodwill, using the audiovisual arts as a tool for education and awareness, for societies that are more united and hopeful for a better tomorrow.

The international awareness video competitions are the heart of the festival: they give young people, students and creators a space to express their ideas and show their talent, from screenwriting to production, and a platform to present their work to the public and share it on digital platforms.

  • Human creativity
  • Artificial intelligence

Three festival days

Three days of events in spaces open to the public: screenings of awareness videos, live shows, activities promoting local heritage, national industries and tourism, community campaigns and creative initiatives, with modern lighting and giant screens.

An independent international jury evaluates the entries and rewards the best productions in each competition. Winning works may be shown on television and partner media platforms, and an audience award is given through social media.

A word from the founder

Giving images a voice.

Ever since the festival was only a dream, we have believed that an image can be far more than a passing scene: that it can open a door to hope, awaken in us a feeling for others, and give a sincere idea the chance to leave a lasting mark.

The International Festival of Awareness Videos grew out of a deep conviction: creativity carries a responsibility, and young people and content creators, once given the space, can speak about the issues of their societies in a language that reaches hearts before minds. We wanted this festival to be a platform for meaningful words and responsible images, and a bridge between creators from Tunisia and from all over the world.

Edition after edition, meeting the works and the people behind them has been a source of pride and hope. Behind every video there is an idea worth telling, a human experience worth hearing, and a message that can make a difference in one person’s life or in the outlook of a whole society.

As we continue this journey, we believe that real progress brings together the authenticity of an idea and creativity’s openness to the tools of its time. Artificial intelligence, like any other means of expression, can serve people, as long as values, responsibility and awareness remain at the heart of every work.

My sincere thanks go to everyone who believed in this project and contributed to its journey: the participants, the jury members, the partners, the supporters, the volunteers, and the audience who gives every message its meaning and its impact. Thanks to all of you, this dream goes on and renews itself.

Together, we will keep giving images a voice, meaningful ideas a space, and hope a road to the future. And we will keep saying, with faith: « إن شاء الله غدوة خير ».
