ICAM was an Australian television program focusing on Indigenous affairs that aired on SBS from 1995 until 2002. ICAM was the first Indigenous affairs program on SBS,[1] and during its run was the only prime time Indigenous affairs program broadcast on national television in Australia.[2] ICAM aired weekly and was hosted by Karla Grant. Production wound back in 2001, and Grant went on to develop ICAM's successor, Living Black.[2][3] In its final year of production, the program won a Walkley Award for Coverage of Indigenous Affairs, for journalist Julie Nimmo's story "No Fixed Address".[4]
