Call for Expressions of Interest
WIFT Victoria is currently seeking up to four members to join its board.
As advocates for women working in Victoria’s screen-based industries, WIFT Victoria aims to support all creative women from diverse cultural and social backgrounds, sexualities and women with disability. To do this effectively and meaningfully, we have recognised that we need to better reflect the community of women we want to represent. With this in mind, we are seeking nominations from women-identifying Victorian screen practitioners from diverse backgrounds to join our board, take on leadership, and help shape WIFT Victoria’s future.
Please send an expression of interest that summarises your skills, experience and why you would like to join the board to events@wiftvic.com.au by Sunday 6th September.
New board members will be elected at the WIFT Victoria AGM taking place this October.
