The Ad Hoc support granted by the Portuguese Institute for Cinema and Audiovisual (ICA) now includes expenses related to the sustainability of film and audiovisual productions.
The regulation outlining the conditions for this financial support has been updated to cover the development of environmental sustainability plans carried out by specialised consultants.
It also includes the hiring of auditing services aimed at obtaining green shooting certification – sustainable production management – or sustainability certification for other initiatives within the film and audiovisual sector.
The first call for 2025 is open until 22 May, with applications to be submitted through this platform. The financial support takes the form of non-repayable funding and may amount to a maximum of 45,000 € per project. In 2025, the total budget available for Ad Hoc support is 350,000 €.
