Disability Inclusion Action Plan

Helping everyone to achieve their potential

The University is committed to ensuring that students, staff and visitors with disability have equal opportunities to excel at and enjoy our university. We launched our 2019-24 Disability Inclusion Action Plan in September 2019, during Disability Inclusion Week.

The Disability Inclusion Action Plan 2019-24 is based on six practical objectives, each with a specific set of actions and outcomes.

Objectives

1. The University incorporates the rights and opportunities of people with disability in all policies and planning.
2. The University of Sydney is a higher education provider of choice for all students.
3. The University is an employer of choice for people with disability.
4. The University’s communication and digital environment is accessible to everyone.
5. The University provides an accessible built environment to everyone.
6. The University provides leadership to the community in developing an inclusive Australian society.
 

We’re creating a culture of inclusion by supporting students with disability through targeted individual support and the adoption of Universal Design for Learning principles in the curriculum.
