Better World Video Awards 2025: A Better Place

1 September 2025
< 1 minute

In this short documentary, one simple question is asked: how can we make the world a better place?


A Better Place is a short documentary that brings together voices from across the world — people of different nationalities, religions, ages and backgrounds. It asked one simple question: what one person can do to make our world a better place?

The answers vary: one individual says to listen to others, while others say kindness is key. Some believe not judging others for how they look is vital to making the world a better place, and others advocate for appreciating each person for who they are. Throughout the documentary, many people are interviewed from all walks of life.

The film collects their answers, showing that despite our differences, we all share the same hopes for kindness, respect and understanding. Sometimes, even the smallest acts of generosity can open new ways to build more trusting and compassionate communities.

A Better Place has been entered into the individual category of the 2025 Better World Video Awards. Find out more about how you can enter here. The individual category prize this year is a seven-night stay in Chiang Mai, courtesy of our partner, Aggressor Adventures; while our group winner will receive a £3,000 advertising package with Geographical
