UNSCRIPTED TELEVISION

SBS commissions programs that explore the SBS Charter and reflect the changing nature of Australian society, both on and off screen. We are seeking bold ideas and distinctive stories that are innovative, prioritise authenticity of voice, push boundaries, challenge perceptions and inspire change. We want all Australians, including those who are traditionally under-represented in the media, to see themselves, their family, friends and communities in the stories we tell.
