China launches national drive to promote science education through cinema
The initiative seeks to use film as a creative medium to explain complex scientific ideas
China has unveiled a nationwide initiative to promote science education through cinema, aiming to make scientific learning more engaging and accessible to the public. This is reported by CCTV+, a partner of TV BRICS.
The launch event at the China Science and Technology Museum in Beijing showcased immersive technologies and interactive exhibits designed to merge cinematic storytelling with educational content.
The initiative seeks to use film as a creative medium to explain complex scientific ideas, particularly in areas such as space exploration and technological innovation. High-definition productions will be adapted for dome and giant-screen formats, allowing planetariums and science museums across the country to offer visually striking and informative experiences.
According to organisers, the project reflects China’s growing commitment to strengthening public understanding of science and promoting national innovation.
Officials described the campaign as a major step in integrating art and education, using film’s emotional and visual appeal to foster a deeper appreciation of science while advancing the country’s broader goals in science literacy.

Ashok MondalNID Director"Signing this Memorandum of Understanding between the National Institute of Design (NID) and TV BRICS marks a pivotal milestone in advancing design diplomacy across the BRICS media space. This moment is especially significant as India hosts the 18th BRICS Summit, following India’s assumption of the BRICS chairship under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. The partnership directly embodies his call to elevate Indian design standards through 'Design in India, Design for the World'. Through the global reach and broadcast capabilities of TV BRICS, we are excited to showcase the extraordinary visual storytelling, films, and design research of NID’s Film and Video Communication students to an international audience, while also welcoming and screening film works from BRICS network countries at NID Ahmedabad. This reciprocal exchange strengthens our shared commitment to educational, cultural, and artistic collaboration, fostering sustainable connections among global creative communities. NID Ahmedabad looks forward to leveraging this partnership to deepen cross-cultural dialogue, build international expert networks, and unlock transformative opportunities for filmmakers, researchers, and faculty across member nations" -
