Australia’s new International Disability Equity and Rights Strategy continues our proud legacy of support for the rights of people with disability. It outlines how Australia will meet the demands of a changing world, integrating disability equity across our international engagement on foreign policy, international development, trade policy, humanitarian assistance and climate action. This Strategy was shaped by people with disability and marks a shift in focus from inclusion to equity and rights, championing outcomes that remove barriers for people with disability so that they can fully and equitably participate in and contribute to society. This Strategy delivers on a commitment under Australia’s International Development Policy to prioritise disability equity and rights.
