Our partnership with UCC has grown over many years and continues to show just how powerful collaboration between the arts and higher education can be. Together, we’ve created opportunities for students, researchers, artists and audiences to connect through film, learning and creativity.
During the 70th Cork International Film Festival in 2025, we were proud to deepen this collaboration through a range of initiatives involving several UCC departments. As our Academic Supporter, UCC worked closely with us to deliver projects that enriched the Festival while supporting our shared ambitions across culture, education, research and community engagement.
Being shortlisted is a wonderful recognition of everything we’ve achieved together and of the people behind this partnership who continue to make it so meaningful.
We’re honoured to be recognised alongside this year’s shortlisted organisations and would like to thank everyone at UCC for their continued support, enthusiasm and collaboration. We look forward to building on this partnership in the years ahead.
