Joana Kohrs

For over 30 years, I have worked in theater and tv , first as an actress and later as co-founder of the acting agency Black Universe Agency. I recently co-founded the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Film. I am a Diversity Awareness and Wellbeing Coordinator and Confidant for cast and crew in film and tv productions. With a background in pedagogy and additional training in mental health, psychology, communication and conflict management, I focus on creating safe, respectful and discrimination-sensitive work environments, as well as providing workshops and individual guidance.
