Partner With Us

Join Us in Transforming the Canadian Screen Industry

At BIPOC TV & Film, we’re on a mission to build a more inclusive and equitable screen media industry—one that celebrates and amplifies the voices of Indigenous, Black, and racialized creators. Over the past decade, we have worked to break down systemic barriers, create opportunities for underrepresented talent, and reshape the narrative of Canadian media. But we can’t do it alone.

We need partners like you—organizations, institutions, and industry leaders who share our vision for a thriving, diverse media landscape—to help us make lasting change.

When you partner with BIPOC TV & Film, you’re not just supporting an organization; you’re investing in the future of Canada’s creative economy. Your partnership will enable us to:

  • Empower Emerging Talent: Help us provide training, mentorship, and resources that prepare Indigenous, Black, and racialized creators for long-lasting careers in the media industry.

  • Promote Diversity and Innovation: Together, we can drive innovation in storytelling and media production by ensuring that creators from all backgrounds have access to the same opportunities.

  • Drive Systemic Change: Join our advocacy efforts as we push for industry-wide policies that promote equity, representation, and economic growth for underrepresented communities.
