Disability Strategies will examine current issues in the disability sector explored within the context of social justice and human rights. 'Social justice' is based on the application of equity, rights, access and participation principles.
Equity - fairness in the distribution of resources, particularly for those in need
Rights - equality of rights established and promoted for all people
Access - fair access for all people to economic resources, services and rights essential to their quality of life
Participation - opportunity for all people to genuinely participate in the community and be consulted on decisions which affect their lives.
