I'm hearing a lot from the media NGO sector about the impact of USAID cuts. A lot of small investigative media organisations across the globe are facing imminent closure as the funding they've budget for has vanished overnight, and the funder community has no capacity to absorb the shock.

Really interesting example of meaningful stakeholder engagement

This report, along @emmabuttsound.bsky.social's tireless efforts towards humane working conditions in post-production is invaluable ! It needs to be an inspiration for unions and workers of post in every country !

Can’t be repeated often enough ‘The UK’s creative industries are vital to the economy. Valued at £124bn, they are worth more than the life sciences, aerospace and automotive industries combined. Arts and culture alone contribute an impressive £34.6bn.’ on.ft.com/42hzVmL

Let's fix it in post Our new research finds human rights harms evident across post production, incl. exploitative working practices; detrimental impacts on health, safety & family life; and impediments to diversity www.tvhumanrights.org/research-pos...

For those working in UK post, a new report has been released highlighting the conditions we often find ourselves working in. Hopefully the broadcasters and commissioners will now be more aware of what goes on behind the scenes. @bectu.bsky.social www.tvhumanrights.org/research-pos...

Our analysis of new ONS GDP data shows a worrying decline in the creative arts and entertainment industry, which has shrunk by 15% since the Labour government took office in July 2024. Urgent investment in arts & entertainment is necessary. www.equity.org.uk/news/2024/eq...
