The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) shapes policies and systems to ensure people with disabilities are treated fairly and can fully participate in society.

I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Worker orientation module: Quality,Safety and You from NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission! This interactive online course is designed to help NDIS workers, like myself, better support people with disabilities by understanding our obligations under the NDIS Code of Conduct from the perspective of NDIS participants. Developed with input from providers and people with disabilities, this module ensures we stay committed to promoting human rights, respect, and managing risks in our roles. Through scenario-based learning, I gained insights into the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and how to uphold the Code of Conduct in daily practice. This training was an important step in enhancing my understanding and continuing to provide quality care.

We are taking one step at a time towards ensuring inclusive learning. SDG4's goal is to "ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all". How can this be if there is no inclusivity for neurodivergent individuals; or people who have either or both physical and cognitive learning difficulties? Giving the bare minimum in the name of inclusive learning is not acceptable. It must be a combined effort to ensure that everyone is given the best opportunity to learn.
