The Film Cultural Exchange Program provides support and assistance to foreign embassies and diplomatic institutions in the Philippines for film-related and cultural events, and bilateral programs.

The FCEP supports film-related events of foreign embassies and diplomatic institutions in the country by providing FDCP ratings and Optical Media Board (OMB) clearances. The FDCP’s Cinematheque Centres may also serve as exhibition platforms for FCEP events. 

The Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) continues its thrust to strengthen regional cooperation for the development of the audiovisual industry through its support and participation in the proposed establishment of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) – Republic of Korea (ROK) Film Organisation (ARFO) as initiated by the Korean Film Council (KOFIC). 
 

The Asian Film Commissions Network (AFCNet), a network of film commissions and professional film support agencies throughout Asia, is the region’s first film-related non-profit international organization. 
 
It advocates regional filming in Asia by streamlining information on filming locations, incentives, requirements, and regulations in the region and supporting member organizations in their international co-productions. As of January 2021, the AFCNet has 54 members from 19 countries. 

The Best Practice Exchange (BPX) is a forum for debate among the leaders of agencies from across the world that provide public funding to stimulate, sustain and promote new filmmaking for the cinema. More than ever before, these agencies are the bedrock of ‘independent’ work for the big screen, that is, films made outside the main production centres of Hollywood and Bollywood, films that express all the other cultures, values and languages that mainstream movies do not encompass.

The Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) held an annual month-long observation of the Philippine Film Industry Month to celebrate and commemorate the heritage, significance, and legacy of Philippine Cinema and to highlight the invaluable contribution and sacrifices of all stakeholders and sectors of the Philippine film industry in September as mandated under the Presidential Proclamation No. 1085, series of 2021.
