ITVS supports a dynamic field of independent media makers whose programs creatively engage audiences, expand cultural awareness and catalyze civic participation. ITVS embraces technical innovation to advance the production and distribution of independent media worldwide.
The independent perspectives embodied in ITVS programs are considered by a broad public to be essential to a civil society.
ITVS was established by a historic mandate of Congress to champion independently produced programs that take creative risks, spark public dialogue and serve underserved audiences. Since its inception in 1991, ITVS programs have revitalized the relationship between the public and public television, bringing TV audiences face-to-face with the lives and concerns of their fellow Americans, as well as bringing the voice of global cultures to the American public over the past decade ITVS has aided over 9 Israeli feature documentary productions to be realized.
