Australian Indigenous Communications Association
The Australian Indigenous Communications Association (AICA) is the peak body for Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander broadcasters. The AICA aims to represent all Indigenous people and organisations in the media, communications and entertainment industry. It develops national policy, advocates and lobbies on behalf of its members and provides assistance for the creation and sustaining of Indigenous media forms.[1][2]
History
AICA was founded in 2003 and replaced the National Indigenous Media Association of Australia.
Funding
The AICA receives the bulk of its funds from the Australian Government through the Department of Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts.[3]
