BYP Network

I have been so honored to have been partnering with the BYP Network this year in both our hosted events and attending their events. I have met some lovely people and have been especially impressed with the focus and knowledge that those pursuing early careers have shown in our conversations. Diversity Equity and Inclusion are a priority for Euromonitor International and partnering with networks like this help us attract the talent we need to build a truly diverse and successful company.

We are proud to be partnering with BYP Network to provide more opportunities to attract more diverse voices into our creative divisions. Our collaboration highlights our commitment to diversity, equality and inclusion (DE&I) as we work to not just bring these voices into the business, but to provide the framework for diverse voices to succeed and thrive through continuous professional development, mentorships and wider training. Our books help to explain the world in imaginative ways, and so much of this creative energy comes from the incredible people who work with us. Our work with BYP will help us to attract more diverse voices as we publish for a global audience. It’s important to us that our creative divisions reflect the diversity of the world we live in. #diversity #equity #inclusion #publishing #workinpublishing

This right here 🙌🏽 Elba, who played South African anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela in the 2013 biopic Long Walk to Freedom, believes that it is vital for Africans to be centre-stage in the entire film-making process. That is in front of the camera, behind the camera and also in financing, distribution, marketing and showing the final product. He imagines that just as movie audiences around the world know the differences between the US cities of New York and Los Angeles without necessarily ever having visited them, they will one day have a more nuanced understanding of the continent. “This sector is a soft power, not just across Ghana but across Africa. “If you watch any film or anything that has got to do with Africa, all you’re going to see is trauma, how we were slaves, how we were colonised, how it’s just war and when you come to Africa, you will realise that it’s not true. “So, it’s really important that we own those stories of our tradition, of our culture, of our languages, of the differences between one language and another. The world doesn’t know that.” With Nigeria’s Nollywood producing hundreds of movies a year, films are arguably one of the country’s most successful exports. There is also a tradition, especially in parts of Francophone Africa, of making high-quality films. Elba has previously recognised the talent in Africa’s film industry, but said the facilities were “lacking”. The UN’s cultural agency said that despite “significant growth in production”, the business of film-making across the continent was hindered by issues such as piracy, insubstantial training opportunities and a lack of official film institutions. Elba believes with the right momentum and involvement of governments willing to create an enabling environment, a virtuous circle can be established. “We have to invest in our story-telling because when you see me, you see a little version of yourself and that encourages us.” We can’t wait for the movies that will come out! #representationmatters
