The past two years have seen worldwide changes in the ways we talk about racial and cultural representation. Contemporary audiences are increasingly seeking out and demanding greater diversity in our screen and performing arts sectors. Writer/broadcaster Sunil Badami talks to CEO of Creative Diversity Network (UK) Deborah Williams about how things are shifting globally. We also speak to Refugee Art Project's Safdar Ahmed about the impacts of Covid 19 on his artistic practice and the communities he works with.
British Council, Creative Victoria, Screen Australia, Belvoir Street Theatre, The Wheeler Centre and Diversity Arts Australia hosted and supported Deborah's visit to Australia in 2019.
