People with a disability are being urged to speak out and share their experiences to help shape the City of Sydney's inclusion (disability) action plan.
You can have your say by completing a digital survey, attending one of our online workshops or speaking with us over the phone.
"While we have made real progress in reducing physical barriers in our city, there are still many barriers that prevent people with disability from fully participating in our city life and living at ease in our community," Lord Mayor Clover Moore said.
"Our vision is for an inclusive and accessible city, where people with disability have equitable opportunities to participate in every aspect of social and cultural life, as well as access to meaningful employment and participation in the decision making process.
"We know that the Covid-19 pandemic has worsened existing inequalities for many people with disability and those caring for someone with disability. We want to hear about your experiences and work with you to create a more inclusive, accessible and liveable city."
The City of Sydney would like to hear from people with disability, people with mental health conditions, carers, disability workers and disability organisations.
The consultation will investigate the less visible barriers people may face, including lack of community awareness, community attitudes and behaviours, and difficulty accessing information, services or employment. It will also explore the physical barriers that may prevent people with disability from moving around our city and accessing our public spaces, parks, playgrounds and facilities.
