Summary and scope

The International Cultural Diplomacy Arts Fund (ICDAF) supports activities in Australia and around the world that promote the Australian Government’s international arts and cultural engagement and cultural diplomacy priorities, and assist the Government in meeting Australia’s international commitments relating to arts and culture. ICDAF is designed to contribute to the overall arts and cultural development work of the Office for the Arts in the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts. It also aims to contribute to broader government objectives, in shaping and supporting Australia’s cultural landscape and Australia’s reputation abroad, and in promoting participation in, and access to, Australia’s arts and culture.

Eligibility

The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts will either require an Expression of Interest or the program will identify activities which accord with the objectives of ICDAF on a targeted, closed, non-competitive basis, and may invite proposals for specific activities where funds are available. ICDAF will support, but is not limited to, the development, production, presentation, exhibition, and/or performance of arts and cultural activities that meet its objectives. It is open to activities that support the whole of the arts sector and industry-wide initiatives, including research activities. ICDAF is open to all art forms and cultural expressions such as music, literature, theatre, dance, design, visual arts, cross-media, and film and screen-based arts. ICDAF is open to organisations and individuals. Ordinarily, a grant will be provided through an Australian incorporated organisation or entity with an active Australian Business Number (ABN). In some circumstances grants may be provided through other agencies or government departments. Ordinarily, a grant will not be provided for a component of an activity that is already receiving funding from another Australian, State or Local Government entity or agency.
