The IFI has developed strategic objectives around three core activities:
EXHIBIT: Providing audiences throughout Ireland with access to the finest independent, Irish, and international cinema.

EDUCATE: Providing opportunities for audiences of all ages and backgrounds to learn and critically engage with film through IFI Education
