Created in 1989, The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Foundation has its own Constitution, Officers and independent Board of Trustees.

Each year, The Foundation administers the Sir Peter Ustinov Television Scriptwriting Award. The competition is designed to motivate non-American novice writers under the age of 30, and offer them the recognition and encouragement that might lead to a successful career in television scriptwriting.

Entrants are asked to create a completed half-hour to one-hour English-language television drama script.

The award winner receives $2,500.

Competition Closes on June 28, 2023 at 12 noon.
