Founded by Finnish filmmakers with a desire to communicate the experiences of people worldwide, Lyfta is a subscription-based digital platform where teachers and pupils can access immersive storyworlds through 360-degree interactive films featuring real people and their stories.
Lyfta’s theme-based learning experiences are used to teach Literacy, Personal Social and Health Education, Global Citizenship and Art, as well as fostering values and skills such as empathy, self-direction and critical thinking. Viewers can “visit” an Ethiopian village or become a virtual guest at the dinner table of families from different cultures. The background of the founding team as filmmakers ensures the highest quality of the film content and its diversity.
Going forward, Lyfta will continue to seek out education content in a virtual reality format that is intuitive and memorable for learners. It will work to its goal of creating these experiences to help broaden the horizons of children and young people by providing opportunities to see beyond their everyday realities.
