The Science of Character (8 mins) explores the neuroscience and social science that proves that we can shape who we are, and who we want to be in the world. The film is available with subtitles in Spanish, Chinese, French, German, Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi, Russian, and Swahili.

The Science of Character premiered to the world on the first ever Character Day, with screenings in 1,500 different schools, homes, and organizations, all on the same day, and all linked together through a global livestream Q&A (back in 2014, long before this was something that happened!).

The response was so wonderful that we continued Character Day as an annual event. By the sixth year, Character Day had grown to over 200,000 events in 125 countries and all 50 states.
