Mission
Supporting the production of video content that focuses on strengthening Indigenous languages and culture.
Sourcing and aggregating video content made by people in remote Indigenous communities.

Development of strategic relationships to enhance and increase ICTV content.
Promoting its services to government and the wider community.
ICTV is a public company limited by guarantee. Its members are made up exclusively of Indigenous people living in remote regions of Australia. ICTV is a collective, and through its collective membership supplies content produced by remote Indigenous video makers to remote Indigenous communities.
The mission of ICTV (Indigenous Community TV) is to ensure that remote Indigenous communities holding community broadcast licences are able to exercise their right to produce and select their own content for local broadcast.
ICTV firmly believes that the needs and interests of Indigenous people living in remote regions of Australia are unique, and are best met by the people themselves. The retention of living Indigenous languages and culture is paramount to its mission. The priorities of people living in remote communities are very much based on the retention of language and culture, coupled with economic independence.
With the withdrawal of access to the second Imparja Channel in July 13 2007, ICTV Limited was no longer able to broadcast to remote communities. Since this time, there has been a constant request from remote communities for ICTV content to be returned to their screens.
