Resources

Power up with the knowledge to help make a difference.

Creating a better future for people with disability involves working together to better understand disability and the issues which affect people with disability.

So we produce a range of relevant educational resources to help inform people about disability-related issues and to connect with PWDA and our work.

Social Model of Disability

There have been many models used to understand disability over time. At PWDA, we use the Social Model of Disability to inform how we work to advance and protect the rights, health and wellbeing of people with disability.
