Disability Access and Inclusion Plan

Edith Cowan University's Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) 2016-2021 articulates a number of strategies that will guide the University’s disability access and inclusion activities over the next five years. The DAIP 2016-2021 is available as a download on the right and in alternative formats on request to sgscadmin@ecu.edu.au.  During 2017 and 2018 organisational changes occurred at Edith Cowan University which impacted on the responsible parties, but the key strategies have remained consistent.  The 2018 updated DAIP reflects the current organisational structure and responsibilities for delivering DAIP strategies.
