Australian Disability Network launches comedic campaign encouraging inclusion in the workplace

The Australian Disability Network has launched a new campaign to promote inclusive workplaces, while addressing the public about the social model of disability.

Ahead of the International Day of People with Disability on December 3, the campaign invites employers and individuals to ‘Choose Inclusion’ via a short film, a suite of free resources, and a social media call-out. It hopes to raise awareness of how everyone can contribute to creating greater inclusion and removing barriers for people with disability.

The short film was created by Taste Creative, and funded by the Department of Social Services. It features comedians and disability advocates Madeleine Stewart and Sam Wade, and was created following extensive consultation with people with disability.
