Discrimination is a daily reality for people with disability. It accounts for almost half of complaints to the Australian Human Rights Commission and touches every part of life: employment, education, housing, transport and access to public spaces.
People with disability are often denied access to technology like ATMs, transport such as air travel and taxis, and venues including pubs, sporting grounds and even dance floors. These barriers reflect how society responds to impairment and defines disability.
This is not just about isolated incidents. It’s about a system built on ableism.
