Ravida Din is a Canadian film producer who formerly served with the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) as a producer, executive producer, then as its Director General of English-language production, from February 11, 2013 to February 26, 2014.

For Pink Ribbons, Inc., Din approached director Léa Pool after having researched and lived with the subject of breast cancer for six years. A breast cancer survivor, Din had been diagnosed at approximately the same time as she first read Samantha King's book Pink Ribbons Inc.: Breast Cancer and the Politics of Philanthropy and Barbara Ehrenreich’s autobiographical essay, Welcome to Cancerland.

It was Din who approached author Margaret Atwood to adapt Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth as a documentary film. Atwood reports that they jointly settled on Jennifer Baichwal as director.

In 2009, working in collaboration with Studio XX, Din executive produced First Person Digital, a training and production program for women exploring new approaches to storytelling.

Din was born in Nairobi and raised in a Muslim family. She is a feminist.
