National Disability Research and Development Agenda
The National Disability Research and Development Agenda, endorsed by Disability Ministers in November 2011, sets out national priorities, focus and direction for disability related research to improve the lives and outcomes for people with disability.
The Research Agenda aims to increase the focus in research on issues facing people with disability. It also seeks to influence the inclusion and direction of research relating to disability across a range of national research initiatives and sectors.
The National Disability Research and Development Agenda sets out national priorities, focus and direction for disability related research in Australia. It recommends research and development directions and principles, details particular areas of inquiry for disability related research, and identifies approaches to further the development of national disability research. The Agenda seeks to focus the direction of disability research and development activity so that it will provide sound evidence for future policy and practice decisions that will ultimately lead to improved outcomes for Australians with disability.
