SUMMARY:Policy in Cinema: Gap between Advocacy and Implementation
DESCRIPTION:The title ‘Policy in Cinema: Only on Paper? Or Is There Space for Implementation and Advocacy?’ reflects the central question that will be explored during the panel discussion.

The title underscores the importance of exploring the relationship between policy and practice in the cinema industry\, and the role that advocacy can play in promoting positive change. \nThe panelists will also examine the ways in which policies can promote diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in the film industry.
