General Requirements (Not Applicable)

Instagram is partnering with Screen Australia’s First Nations Department for a second year of the First Nations Creators Program, with an exciting, immersive production and education program to be held at Sydney's Meta Headquarters.

The First Nations Creators Program aims to foster Indigenous talent, amplify their voices online and help create long term career prospects for First Nations creators in social media and digital content creation.

Up to ten emerging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander digital creators will be selected to take part in an intensive in-house Fellowship program over one week, which provides training, mentoring, career connections and content funding. Each creator will then be challenged to create their own series of Reels for Instagram, with content creation and delivery to happen within 6 weeks after the completion of a three day program.

This program will be administered and supported by Screen Australia’s First Nations department.
