The creative industries sector accounts for 7% of the world’s GDP (according to the International Trade Centre). Creativity is key to innovation, and a driver for sustainability and prosperity, and that's why the Festival also features art that transcends boundaries. Here you will find work created by and focussed on women, young people, and members of indigenous and diaspora communities around the world.
From films, to conversations with filmmakers, authors and artists, to visual art and virtual gallery walk-throughs, you're sure to find something to inspire, stimulate and delight! Some work is available on demand, and some sessions are being held live. Dip into the on-demand activities from 18 October, and register NOW for live events, all by clicking on the sessions below.
