INCLUSIVE STORYTELLING

Screen Australia is committed to building equity into its programs
and its engagement with the community. Gender equity, anti-racism, authentic story-telling, from and about under-represented groups, 
and inclusivity are priorities for Screen Australia. We expect that the 
lived experience portrayed through the narrative and characters are reflected within the key creative team. It is vital the creative team has
the cultural authorship to tell the story so that telling of the story is authentic. This will be taken into account when assessing applications.

For Australian screen content to effectively deliver cultural and
economic benefits it must speak to, and be for, all Australians.
Ultimately a diversity of ideas and a diverse workforce will grow
the Australia screen industry, make it more relevant to Australian
audiences and more competitive internationally.
