Governance
Reel Green™ operates under the guidance of an Advisory Committee composed of industry stakeholders, government organizations and other leaders in sustainability. This committee collaborates with Creative BC to oversee the Strategic Plan, ensure program goals are met, and provide input and resources. All funding is directed toward program development and delivery, with a focus on efficiency and broad industry representation.
