Disability rights priorities

We work with people with disability, disability rights organisations and advocates to challenge discrimination and make our society more accessible, supportive and fair. Our work to defend and improve the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) increases transparency and accountability, and leads to fairer decisions and policies.
