Concurrent Room 2

Stream 3 - Session 2 - Systemic advocacy for the future

Presentation Description

The Disability Royal Commission has committed $40,000 over 4 years to increase the capacity of advocacy in a new advocacy program that promotes a consistent, evidence-based approach to advocacy. This is set to be the biggest shakeup of advocacy in 30 years.  DANA is talking to its members and the broader disability community about what the future of advocacy may look like.  

This panel would like to talk to advocates and the broader disability community about what the future of advocacy may look like in 2030, asking addressing questions like:
  • If funding was not a barrier, how would you see advocacy fit into the broader disability service system?
  • What will be mix look like between advocating for individuals and disability representative organisations
  • What issues will the advocate be addressing in the future?
