Accessibility: Beyond Intention Working Together for Change through Korero
We have all experienced when good intentions themselves are not enough, and we want to see actions that fully embody the intention.
We want that for accessibility.
Our Core Planning Group (15 people: Providers, Disabled People, Whanau, Auckland Disability Advisory Panel) are inviting you to a collective korero to discover together what strengthens accessibility – taking it beyond intention into action. We are inviting Providers, Disabled People, Whanau, members of the 2019 – 2022 Auckland Disability Advisory Panel, representatives from Whaikaha, Auckland City Council and local ministerial bodies, to ensure everyone is at the table and part of the solutions we will be co-generating together.
The Summit will happen over two half-days: 5th Oct and 23rd Nov
Knowing that every question we ask changes things, and can change the system itself – our Core Planning Group have designed tailored questions to discover and appreciate:
- What is the best of what already exists?
- What else is possible?
- What is our positive core?
- What can and should be?
- What sustains and inspires?
