Meet the Commissioners and Screen Funding Agencies

Commissioning editors and executives play a pivotal role in shaping what we see on screen. This panel invites key decision-makers from across the screen industry to discuss how they are working to foster greater diversity in the stories, voices, and talent represented in Australian film and television. From inclusive commissioning practices to supporting underrepresented creatives, the conversation will explore why diversity matters—not just as a moral imperative, but as a driver of innovation, audience engagement, and cultural relevance.

This panel will be Auslan interpreted.

Co-presented by Streaming Industries and Genres Network (SIGN).
