Disability Action Week

Disability Action Week celebrates Queenslanders with a disability and the contributions they make within our families, communities, workplaces and to our state’s economy.

Queensland will celebrate Disability Action Week 2025 from 23 - 30 November 2025.

Disability Action Week is a chance to reflect on our progress and look at what we can all do to build a more accessible and inclusive region.

This year's theme ‘Communicate. Connect. Create’ aims to demonstrate accessible communication in action in our communities and the simple changes we can make to improve access for all.

In 2024 Council endorsed it's Access and Inclusion Action Plan 2024-27,(PDF, 4MB) a series of action items that form a three-year roadmap towards our goal of improving accessibility and inclusivity. It is an organisation-wide plan designed to benefit the community. We commit to making accessibility and inclusion a priority in everything we do.

Our vision is a thriving and inclusive community where diversity is celebrated, and all individuals have equal access to opportunities and resources. Let’s highlight our progress while acknowledging what needs to be done to make our community more accessible and inclusive.
