The 2040 documentary and mathematics curriculum package offers a range of lessons designed to introduce students to climate change and its solutions, including sustainable transport, alternative food sources, and educating women and girls. The package aims to inspire students to take positive social action for a better future by connecting them with the positive sustainability messages explored in the documentary film 2040. The package includes media library support for teachers and an educational license for on-site screenings for school communities.

2040 is proudly distributed in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment. The Schools Version includes an educational license, allowing you to play it in class as a learning tool or even host on-site screenings for your school community.
