Our overall objective is for DFI Members to have access to the supports and resources they need to embed self-advocacy in their organisations, and that self-advocates will gain the confidence to contribute more effectively in framing their services. We also hope that over the course of the four-year project, self-advocates will also of opportunities to influence and direct our advocacy work in DFI.
DFI will employ core community development values and standards to this project and actions will be underpinned by the principles of the UNCRPD.
This meeting will be theme-based. The theme selected was 'working with difference - how to work with people with different disabilities.'
