Gender Matters KPI
Screen Australia’s Gender Matters KPI is enshrined in the agency’s Corporate Plan. The target has evolved over the years:
KPI 1: 2016/17 to 2018/19
Target: At least half of the projects that received Screen Australia production funding would have women occupying at least 50% of key creative roles (writers, producers and directors), across a three-year average.
Result: Achieved, with a three-year average of 56%.
KPI 2: 2019/20 to 2021/22
Target: At least 50% of the key creative roles (writers, producers and directors) across all projects that received Screen Australia development and production funding would be women, across a three-year-average.
Result: Achieved, with a three-year average of 55%.
This KPI was ‘rolled over’ for the year 2022/23. Screen Australia achieved the target, achieving a three-year average of 55% (2020/21-2022/23).
KPI 3: 2023/24 to 2025/26 (CURRENT)
Following feedback from industry, Screen Australia expanded the KPI to include non-binary and gender diverse key creatives.
Target: Across a three-year average (2023/24 to 2025/26), at least 50% of the key creative roles (writers, producers and directors) across all projects receiving Screen Australia development and production funding will be occupied by women, and/or non-binary and/or gender diverse people.
