We were delighted to produce the latest equality data report for the The Arts Council / An Chomhairle Ealaíon published this week. The analysis in this report is based on diversity data submitted as part of applications made to the Arts Council and for Arts Council schemes managed by Create and Arts & Disability Ireland in the year 2022. The diversity of applications and awards are compared in terms of disability, ethnicity, gender, and where possible, geographic location. To understand the relative demographic representativeness of applicants and recipients, each of these metrics have been compared (where possible) to the population of Ireland Census 2022. This report presents a summary of key findings from that analysis. The following differences are most pronounced, and these strongly reflect the patterns evident in the previous year: Gender: There is a higher proportion of both applicants and recipients who identify as female compared to the general population. On average individuals who identify as non- binary apply for and are granted the highest award value. Disability: Individuals who identify as having a disability are under-represented amongst applicants and recipients compared to the general population. On average, individuals who answered ‘Yes’ to having a disability apply for and are granted the lowest award value. Ethnicity: The majority of applicants and recipients identified as White Irish, which is in line with the census 2022 data. The success rate for awards is also highest among applicants from White or White Irish backgrounds. The rate of application and award is lowest among individuals who identify as Other or Mixed, Asian or Asian Irish, Black or Black Irish, or belonging to the Traveller Community. Geography: Dublin was significantly over-represented in terms of proportion of applicants and recipients compared to the population. Cork, Galway, Wicklow, Clare and Sligo were also slightly over-represented in applications.
