The nation’s multicultural and multilingual broadcaster has partnered with Screen Australia, state and territory agencies Film Victoria, Screen Canberra, Screen NSW, Screen Queensland, Screenwest and the South Australian Film Corporation, to launch the Emerging Screenwriters’ Incubator.

The incubator, designed to foster greater diversity among Australia’s screenwriting talent, will provide employment opportunities on drama productions for 18 emerging screenwriters from under-represented backgrounds over the next three years.
