THE ENVIRONMENTAL FILM FESTIVAL AUSTRALIA ENTERTAINS WITH GROUNDBREAKING FILMS, TRAVERSING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMANS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTS, CHALLENGING THE WAY PEOPLE THINK ABOUT THE NATURAL WORLD AND INSPIRING THEM TO DISCUSS, EXPLORE AND ACT ON IMPORTANT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. And EFFA is more than just a film festival – it's a catalyst for positive and sustainable change. Our film screenings get viewers thinking and feeling. Our panel discussions and debates get audiences talking and asking questions. Our partners provide opportunities for individual and collective action. We connect conscious consumers with ethical organisations, then direct them to act. Our programme takes audiences on a deeper exploration of the issues. EFFA brings business people, scientists, government, academics, creatives, and environmentalists together for expert panel discussions that get viewers actively involved. And it's not just talk. Attendees are given clear directions for action. We present and promote sustainable solutions provided by our partner organisations. We feature films from the world's most talented and socially-conscious filmmakers. Our program delivers information, inspiration and – above all – a sense of hope for the future. We embrace diversity and champion local, minority and creative voices. Issues and solutions are linked to the audience's values, maximising relevance and motivating them to take action. Topics explored include: sustainability, habitats, geography, urban life, the awe of beautiful places, and the connections and challenges between people and place. We're dedicated to programming by, for, and about Australians. We focus on supporting local talent and target 30% local content. EFFA acknowledges Australia's First Nations, and actively seeks to represent indigenous perspectives throughout the festival. It's part of our broader strategy for connecting issues, ideas and communities.
