ACCAN recently submitted to the Department of Social Services’ consultation on the Review of Australia’s Disability Strategy. 

ACCAN notes that accessible communications and technology are central to the success of the Australian Disability Strategy (ADS).

In our submission, ACCAN recommends the Review adopts an approach to supporting improvements in accessible communications and technology that focuses on:

  • Improving Australia’s laws and their linkage to communications and technology accessibility standards.
  • Improving data quality relating to the accessibility of communications and technology.
  • Developing workforce skills and capacity to deliver on planned improvements.
