Evidence to Action
Register for an event
The NDRP wants research to lead to real world solutions. This means working together with people with disability and their organisations, government, service providers, and the community. Our Evidence to Action events talk about what is known about a certain topic, what is not known, and what research is needed. Our goal is to work together and inform future research and policy directions.
The next two events, on 23 March and 9 April, will focus on preparing for NDRP's 2026 Disability Research Funding opportunities.
We’ll talk about policy insights, national priorities, and evidence gaps that shape accessible and inclusive communities and safety of people with disability across Australia.
