We aim to inspire, engage, and entertain local audiences with the stories and songs of Aotearoa. We do this by investing in authentic and meaningful content for the various audiences that make up Aotearoa New Zealand.
Funding decisions for projects seeking $1m or under are made by a Staff Investment Committee. Projects seeking over $1m are determined by the Board.
