Sector awaits progress report on National Arts & Disability Strategy

28/04/2011 - AArts News

Accessible Arts contacted the Cultural Ministers Council in April, to enquire about the progress of actions committed to in the National Arts and Disability Strategy, released in October 2009. Many in the arts & disability sector are waiting for the reported progress on this Strategy and the release of a communiqué that will provide information about this progress.

"We do look forward to receiving this information to learn how New South Wales has played a part in achieving positive outcomes for people with disability," said Sancha Donald, CEO Accessible Arts.

With the Cultural Ministers Council and its Working/Steering Committees discontinuing at the end of this financial year, Accessible Arts has advocated that the agenda and ensuing actions committed to in the National Arts and Disability Strategy remains a primary focus for the Arts and Disability Strategy Steering Committee.

Accessible Arts will continue to advocate for action when the intergovernmental forum restructures in the new financial year.
