Call to Action – Australian Disability + Development Consortium Did you know that Australia is a world leader in including people with disability within its aid program? People with disability make up over one in five of the world’s poorest people. To reach these people, it is essential that people with disability are actively included in development. ADDC is calling for our politicians to ensure that Australia continues its global leadership in disability-inclusive development. Politicians are being called to: 1. Keep the promise: increase Australia’s aid budget in the 2013-14 budget 2. Appoint an Ambassador for Disability-Inclusive Development 3. Champion disability in the post-Millennium Development Goal framework 4. Include people with psychosocial disabilities within Australia’s aid program To find out what you can do go to: addc.org.au
