The NDRP is all about collaborative research: "nobody can do this in isolation". The second of our video series explains what we mean and why we believe that research done in partnership is better.
One of our principles is to value the knowledge of people with disability in research. We do this by funding research that gives people with disability real decision-making power. This video explains more.

We are so pleased for Keran Howe who received an Honorary Doctorate from @UniMelb yesterday, in recognition of her service to disability policy & advocacy - especially for women. Keran is on our Working Party; we know firsthand how she brings her passion and wisdom to everything.
One of the projects we funded @Deakin co-designed 7 videos to help Syrian & Iraqi refugees with disability access the NDIS and support in Australia. The Arabic videos (English subtitles) were co-designed by researchers & #refugee families with #disability https://t.co/uxHRlVMOh5
"The NDRP is aiming to be inclusive from the get-go so that people with disability are at the centre of driving the questions and the way in which we do research". Anne @Kavanagh_AM on how the NDRP aims to be responsive to what people with disability see as research priorities
One of our funded projects @Sydney_Uni made a website for parents with intellectual disability. It has tip sheets for parents and support workers. It also has advice for family support services & the NDIS to support parents with intellectual disability https://t.co/2NcfgAv5wJ
Keran Howe, NDRP Working Party member, shares the benefits of the NDRP to people with disability and universities. ‘It’s going to create opportunities for people with disability to have careers in academia and in research, and build understanding from those rich perspectives’
There’s still time to have your say on the draft NDRP research agenda. The research agenda will guide what research is funded by the NDRP – so it’s important we get it right and hear from as many people as possible. Closing this Friday 26 May.
