She added that being healed from past trauma would ensure that the victim had an impactful change in the industry.
“There are a lot of damages that have been done to women and we need to start talking to address the issues and also help with the healing process.
“We must deal with the hurt so as to give our full self to the industry and must ensure that we share our pain so as to ease up the load we have in our mind.
“This would also help in eradicating the bad eggs in the industry and ensure that such bad elements are replaced with good ones,” she said.
Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi, Co-founder, of The African Women’s Development Fund, emphasised the importance of seeing challenges as a stepping stone to achieving great things.

Beatrice Eyong, Director, of UN Women’s Country, said, “Women should become irreplaceable and indispensable in the industry so that when they are not there, their impact will be felt.
“We need to support women in making decisions in the film industry as there is also the need for the industry to adopt certain principles which will serve as guidelines for everyone.”
The event featured panel discussions on forming a sustainable and formidable network as well as the settings of structure, technology and infrastructure in the country.
