Process Evaluation of BFI FAN and Network Programmes

Award outcome

Description

The BFI wishes to commission an evaluator to deliver a process evaluation of two key National Lottery programmes: BFI Film Audience Network (FAN) and BFI NETWORK, covering the period 2023 to 2029. Both programmes operate a UK-wide delivery model, though they differ in their structure and implementation. A key strategic principle underpinning the BFI’s Screen Culture 2033 (SC2033) and National Lottery strategies is UK-wide access and benefit, ensuring that funding and opportunities for screen culture reach communities, audiences, and creatives across all four nations. The delivery models for FAN and NETWORK—both of which involve devolved decision-making across a range of organisations in different nations and regions—are therefore central to how the BFI delivers on this principle of place-based provision.
