Find out how Australian national data sets can be utilised to inform effective disability policy.
Four experts from the Centre of Research Excellence in Disability and Health (CRE-DH) will draw on examples from their research in health inequalities and the role of the social determinants of health to illustrate how disability data can inform policy.
Data sources covered will include household surveys conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), the longitudinal Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, administrative healthcare and income support data, and National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) data.
The session will provide valuable insight for policy-makers, disability advocates, researchers, students, and anyone with an interest in using quantitative data in disability research and policy.
