Advisory Board for Gender Equality
FILMFEST DRESDEN aims to be an open and safe space for all gender identities and sexual orientations. Since forms of discrimination such as sexism are deeply rooted and can also be found in festival structures, FILMFEST DRESDEN is actively working on a gender-sensitive orientation. For this purpose, an advisory board for gender equality was founded at the beginning of 2022, which supports the festival in its gender-responsive development, advises the team and promotes a discussion on the topic of gender equality and diversity.
Its members are:
Leo Lentz, LAG Queeres Netzwerk Sachsen e.V.
Jörg Gakenholz, LAG Jungen- und Männerarbeit Sachsen e.V.
Maria Kropp und Astrid Tautz, Genderkompetenzzentrum Sachsen / FrauenBildungsHaus Dresden e.V.
