Keep Festive and Create Safer Events

How can we make festivals truly festive—for everyone? Join us for an essential CEE Animation Experience webinar dedicated to Keep Festive, a new international initiative committed to creating safer, more inclusive environments at animation industry events. Guest speakers Aneta Ozorek and Anastasiya Verlinska, representing member festivals behind the initiative, will present its core values, practical tools, and real-world protocols developed to prevent sexual harassment and unsafe situations. From establishing a Code of Conduct to training staff and managing sensitive cases, this session will explore ways organizers and festival professionals can foster respectful and supportive industry events.

Keep Festive is an initiative run by the Animation Festival Network with the support of the Creative Europe MEDIA programme of the European Union.
