A moving and powerful story about ecological awareness and standing for educational rights, in a perspective of friendship and solidarity

Education in our fast-changing world is essential, especially when climate change is threatening the future of humanity. School of Hope follows the nomadic Oulad Boukais Tribe, whose children walk miles to a tiny schoolhouse, built by their parents, in the hope that education can prepare the next generation for new ways of life when a nomadic lifestyle is becoming impossible.
