The UNAOC PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival 2026 for young filmmakers worldwide (all expenses paid to PLURAL+ Awards Ceremony in New York, USA)

Applications are now open for the 2026 PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival. The PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival is an initiative of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) that invites the world’s youth to submit original and creative videos focusing on the themes of migration, diversity, social inclusion, and the prevention of xenophobia. By supporting the distribution of youth-produced media, PLURAL+ recognizes youth as powerful agents of positive social change in a world often characterized by intolerance, and cultural and religious divisions.

WORTH

  • Recipients of the International Jury Distinctions and Special Recognitions are invited to the location of the PLURAL+ Ceremony, all expenses paid. (While the venue may occasionally change, most of the past Ceremonies have been hosted in New York.)
  • The invitation covers the travel and accommodation expenses of 1 person per video only. If you submit a video as a group, only 1 person will be invited to receive the recognition on behalf of the entire group and therefore only 1 person will be covered to travel. Other members of the group are welcome to attend the Ceremony at their own expense. In the case of participants under the age of 18, the invitation will also cover the travel and accommodation costs of an adult chaperone (parent or legal guardian).

ELIGIBILITY

  • Entrants to PLURAL+ must be no older than 25 years old at the time of the production of their videos.

DEADLINE: June 30, 2026
