The DocSalon Toolbox Programme is a pilot initiative jointly developed between EFM DocSalon and EFM Diversity & Inclusion

Aimed at entry-to-mid level feature-length documentary film producers or producing filmmakers from the documentary sector, the DocSalon Toolbox Programme is designed specifically to endow documentary creatives from marginalized and underrepresented groups with market intelligence, business tools and connections. Comprising access to networking and matchmaking events and additional business modules (tailor-made workshops as well as one-on-one meetings and consultations), the programme provides a kit of transferable business know-how and connections under the guidance of a consultant and a coordinator. In 2021, this initiative will be entirely online.
