BAFTA, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, has published the current makeup of its membership, which totals around 14,000 individuals, five years after a comprehensive 2020-2021 review aimed at boosting diversity and inclusion. In its 2025 update, BAFTA says it has achieved nearly all of the membership targets set out in 2020. Notably, minority ethnic representation stands at 19.85%, just shy of the 20% target, while 12% of members are Deaf or Disabled. This release underscores BAFTA’s progress in reflecting the diversity of the UK’s screen industries within its member base. Context and scope: The 2020 Diversity and Inclusion Review sought to widen participation and strengthen leadership pipelines across BAFTA’s membership and the wider film, television, and games sectors represented by the organization. The 2025 data indicate substantial progress toward these goals, with ongoing work anticipated to address any remaining gaps and to adapt targets as the industry evolves. Industry impact: By publicly sharing membership composition data, BAFTA signals accountability and leadership in representation, inclusion, and access within the British entertainment landscape. The reported progress contributes to broader conversations about equality in film, TV, and related media and provides a benchmark for continued improvement across the industry. What’s next: BAFTA plans to continue monitoring and publishing progress against its diversity targets, inviting collaboration with creators, producers, and organizations across the UK screen sectors to sustain momentum toward a more inclusive and representative entertainment ecosystem.
