Purpose of the Irish Language Broadcast Fund:
The aim of the Irish Language Broadcast Fund (ILBF) is to promote the production and broadcast of high-quality Irish language content for audiences in Northern Ireland and beyond, while supporting the continued development of the Irish language production sector in Northern Ireland. The Fund supports content across television, radio, digital and interactive platforms and also invests in training initiatives designed to develop the skills and opportunities of Irish speakers working, or aspiring to work, in the screen industries.
Decisions to allocate resources from the ILBF are taken in line with the assessment criteria outlined in the ILBF Guidelines and ILBF Priorities (click each to view). Key amongst these criteria is the extent to which a project contributes to the status and promotion of the Irish language, supports the growth of the Irish language production sector in Northern Ireland, and demonstrates a clear ability to reach substantial audiences.
