BAFTA has brought into effect new eligibility requirements aimed at improving the diversity of its film awards. Confirmed for the 2019 awards, the requirements impact two categories: Outstanding British Film and Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer.
Entries into these categories will be required to meet two of the four BFI Diversity Standards, the British Film Institute's guidance policy for project funding that focuses on underrepresented groups across four areas: on-screen representation, themes and narratives; project leadership and creative practitioners; industry access and opportunities; and opportunities for diversity in audience development.
