The Australian Children's Television Foundation (ACTF) is a non-profit, government-funded organisation in Australia concerned with the development, production, dissemination and promotion of children's television and other audio-visual material for children.
The ACTF was established in 1982, following the recommendations of a series of reports to an Australian Senate committee concering the quality of children's television programming, and the impact of television violence upon children.
