We have shared a range of useful information about co-design processes and the reform work.
Good Practice Guidelines for Engaging with People with Disability
https://www.disabilitygateway.gov.au/ads/strategy/good-practice-guidelines
They provide practical guidance for people who run activities to design, plan, and deliver processes, products, services, and policies. These activities include: research; testing; development; decision making. The guidelines were co-designed by people with disability, disability peak and representative bodies, and disability service providers across Australia. The guidelines will help users to make sure their activities work for people who may experience challenges with: hearing; immunity; interacting socially; moving (upper body and/or lower body); regulating emotions; remembering and/or concentrating; seeing; sensing; speaking; understanding information.
