How Can Film Schools Become More Diverse and Accessible in a Sustainable Way?
Next Thursday, we’re asking “How Can Film Schools Become More Diverse and Accessible in a Sustainable Way?” in our free public panel on Social Sustainability. Diversity and inclusion experts from Copenhagen, London, and Berlin will discuss their insights and findings from their universities: How do they define their roles? What opportunities and challenges do they see? As gatekeepers and door-openers, film schools can shape and actively change the future of the film scene on both a national and international level. But how can we guarantee that the issues of diversity, inclusion, and accessibility have not only temporarily come to the forefront, but are sustainably applied and integrated into the structures of film schools and consequently into those of the film industry? Fatih Abay (European Film Academy), Dee Kerai (London Film School) and Jakob Høgel (National Film School of Denmark) will be on the panel. Aida Begović (Diversity and Inclusion Strategy Coordinator) will moderate the discussion. In cooperation with the European Film Academy and Creative Europe Desks Deutschland Desk Munich | Creative Europe Desk KULTUR Thursday, November 16 3:30 – 5:00 pm Hochschule für Fernsehen und Film München (HFF München) Audimax Language: English All are welcome

11moThank you very much for this important contribution to the discussion in the art education sector. For years, we have been endeavouring to increase the proportion of people with disabilities and people with a history of migration in the education context and have noticed how difficult it is to give these people access to the market, e.g. in terms of the casting landscape. We firmly believe that narratives can be changed with and in the training context and wish we could take part in your interesting event! in case there is any publication based on the event, we would be delighted if you would let us know! office@filmschoolvienna.com - Frauke Steiner
