New report: PWDA’s Response to the Disability Royal Commission Final Report

It reflects what PWDA members across Australia think about key recommendations and the change we want to see in response to our Royal Commission: https://t.co/9s64RjzwHU

As we watch, listen to & attend the #ClosingDRC ceremony today, we should all be expecting leadership from all governments decision makers to end the systemic segregation of #PwD which exacerbates violence against us. TY@PWDAustralia for your advocacy. @DRC_AU #EndSegregation

G20 leaders have pledged their commitment to inclusive, equitable, and high-quality education for ALL! We anticipate Australia's pledge to end student segregation and build a truly inclusive education system. @pruecar @AbigailBoydMLC @JasonClareMP

Hi @billshortenmp your comment on #Insiders about more funding for segregated "special" schools fails to recognise disabled people's fight towards phasing out segregation on the basis of disability. Please see DPOs #EndSegregation Position Paper: https://t.co/UK1TYrIdZY 1/

[Cátia Malaquias @CatiaMalaquias]

@AmandaRishworth Minister Rishworth, it's important that the Australian government understands the imperative to end segregation on the basis of disability and this be reflected in all law and policy - please see today's media release by @PWDAustralia to #EndSegregation https://t.co/Ee6K0CcSE6

[Craig Wallace @CraigWtweets]

I strongly endorse this great statement calling for a radical response to end segregation and discrimination of people with disability in advance of the #DisabilityRC final report by @PWDAustralia

[Cátia Malaquias @CatiaMalaquias]

I support @PWDA's strong and clear call to #EndSegregation of people with disability and hope to see recommendations in the @DRC_AU Final Report to work towards this outcome and the achievement of equality and genuine inclusion for ALL.

[Giancarlo de Vera ❤️ Disability | 🌈 @gdevera]

Jumping back on here after some time away to let everyone know that @PWDAustralia is calling to #EndSegregation in the lead up to the @DRC_AU releasing its Final Report. To do just this, we need concrete, time-bound action now! Read more and watch our segregation video below!

[People with Disability Australia (PWDA) @PWDAustralia]

Media Release: PWDA is calling for a radical response to end the segregation and discrimination of people with disability ahead of the release of the Disability Royal Commission’s final report later this month.

[People with Disability Australia (PWDA) @PWDAustralia]

People with disability need segregation to end. We need control over our lives, so we can participate and be included fully in the community.
Watch this video to find out what we’re asking for as we approach the end of the Disability Royal Commission: https://t.co/HNAvKNlB1H

[People with Disability Australia (PWDA) @PWDAustralia]

We'll be at #COSP this week with @DPOAustralia to help bring the voices of Australians with disability to this important @UN conference.

Partial funding to attend COSP has been provided by the Australian Government. We thank @ausgov for their support.

We're conducting a 2nd survey contributing to the NDIS Review open to people who do and don't receive #NDIS support. This one focuses on how the NDIS helps or could help you with housing. What is working well? How could it be done better? More: https://t.co/D08nGzdQXW #disability

[People with Disability Australia (PWDA) @PWDAustralia]

People with Disability Australia welcomes the Treasurer’s assurance that ‘the #NDIS is here to stay’ in his budget speech. However, tonight’s budget has more to do on housing and economic security measures to bring comfort to the disability community. https://t.co/ls0xZruq2i

It’s obviously great to see some upward movement, but it’s also obvious that a $2.85 increase PER DAY won’t make a material difference. Can’t even buy a cup of coffee #JobSeeker #auspol #Budget2023
