EAVE IMPACT – the concept

EAVE programmes have a profound impact on the European independent industry as a whole by: 

  • Empowering graduates to become agents of change and shape their local, regional and national communities.
  • Supporting the professionalization of stakeholders across the value chain and their continued dialogue within a strong and supportive network. 
  • Building bridges within Europe, while linking the European industry to global markets. 
  • Promoting inclusion, diversity, gender equality, and mental health in the industry.
  • Working to achieve a conscious, engaged and sustainable industry.
  • Advocating for innovation, best practices, green policies and value-based systems and setting the benchmark for audio-visual training worldwide.

EAVE has been actively engaging in the overall transformation in the production sector: it has been a key player in promoting cross-border and cross-disciplinary collaboration since its inception in 1988, consistently empowering independent producers from around the world.

“At EAVE, we want to push our producers and ourselves to step out of our ‘comfort zone’, and constantly ask ourselves the necessary questions to sustain today’s industry and help build tomorrow’s.

These questions include how to embrace new content formats and develop the audio-visual narrative language, capture audiences, shape and embrace new models of financing and distribution, and last but not least, how to build sustainable companies.”

 Kristina Trapp, CEO of EAVE
