British Film And TV Academy Says Non-Diverse Films Won’t Be Eligible For Major Awards Starting In 2019

“To be eligible for the two awards, films must prove they have worked to improve diversity in two of the four following areas: On-screen characters and themes; Senior roles and crew; Industry training and career progression; Audience access and appeal to under-represented audiences. The measures comply with the diversity standards the BFI (British Film Institute) uses to guide its activities and the projects it funds.”
