Researchers asked more than 60 people from business, government, community and advocacy organisations around Australia about how to change community attitudes and looked at past studies on changing attitudes and behaviour. The research found that to create change there needs to be an ‘active presence of a diversity of people with disability across all life domains, including inclusive schooling, employment and communities’.
It shows that different types of policy are needed to create change, including advertising, guidelines, laws, regulation and funding and emphasises the need for long term approaches with enough funding and resources to change the way organisations, governments and business work.
