Launched at the end of 2016, the Creative Ireland Programme 2017-2022 is "an invitation to the entire country to get involved in something truly inspirational". Creative Ireland is the Government’s Legacy Programme for Ireland 2016 – a five-year initiative, from 2017 to 2022, which places creativity at the centre of public policy, connecting the local, the national and the international.
Aiming to facilitate an ecosystem of creativity, the Creative Ireland Programme is based on five pillars, including a focus on Ireland’s potential to be a global leader in film production, TV drama, documentary, children’s storytelling, and animation for the screen, as well as a unified international identity and communications programme, based on Irish culture and creativity, to consolidate Ireland's global reputation.
Take a look at the full cultural policy programme, developed through a joined-up policy approach involving many government departments in its development and implementation. And watch out for the first Creative Ireland Forum conference planned for 2017, showcasing the best in national and international thinking.
