SUMMARY:Unconscious Bias Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for joining Film Fatales\, BIFA\, and Level Forward for a private workshop about Unconscious Bias led by Challenge Consultancy. This was a private workshop for current members of Film Fatales and invited guests of Level Forward was led by Femi Otitoju. \nThis interactive workshop covered how unconscious and ingrained biases (that is\, biases that we are not aware of) affect human decision-making day-to-day and how that might have an effect on the work we do in independent filmmaking. How does the human decision-making process work and what factors can influence it? Where can logical decision-making go wrong and lead us to illogical conclusions? What is an unconscious bias and what can we be unconsciously biased against? How can we recognize and mitigate against unconscious biases on a personal level and in group discussions? How does this affect our work in the film industry and what we can do to fix it?
