The City of Sydney Inclusion (Disability) Action Plan

The City of Sydney has drafted a new Inclusion (Disability) Action Plan, and they would like to know what you think about it.

With one in five people in Australia living with a disability, the City of Sydney is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive city for everyone. The new plan has been developed in consultation with the City’s Inclusion (Disability) Advisory Panel, building on the progress made from previous plans to improve inclusion and access across the City of Sydney.

The draft Inclusion (Disability) Action Plan 2014 -2017 sets out six key directions as well as priority actions to help people with a disability to get around, access City information, participate in cultural and recreational activities and have a say on shaping the City’s future.

The six key directions are:
  

• People of all abilities can get around the city
• Visitors and tourists of all abilities are welcome 
• People of all abilities live and work in the City 
• All people have access to City information 
• People of all abilities have a say 
• People of  all abilities are a part of city life
