Inclusive participation

Inclusive participation

Inclusive participation.

People with intellectual disabilities have the right to take part and be included.

We call this “inclusive participation”.

It means…

  • getting information in a way we can understand;

  • being able to share ideas, experiences, and knowledge like everyone else;

  • having the time and adjustments needed to take part.

Put simply, inclusive participation is about removing barriers.

Our work to promote inclusive participation.

Inclusive organisations

We advocate for organisations to be inclusive of people with intellectual disabilities.
