Daniela Kon Lieberberg, SIMA Founder and Executive Director
“The authentic storytelling SIMA Academy curates illuminates the dignity and resilience of people from all walks of life, and stands out in its transparency, integrity, and creativity to take viewers on a journey that is fatal to prejudice and a springboard for empathy, critical thinking, media literacy, and action.”
Mila, MILATIDO Founder
“What I love and appreciate about SIMA is that they value this authenticity in storytelling that comes from human-to-human connection with an emphasis on practicing compassion instead of the apathetic sympathy that is easy to fall into.“
