Community Forums

The Disability Royal Commission has held a series of forums around Australia to hear from people with disability and their families and supporters about their experiences and views.

We have held community forums in:

  • Hobart
  • Gawler
  • Adelaide
  • Townsville
  • Ipswich
  • Logan

Commissioners have also visited Aboriginal communities and organisations in Palm Island and Cherbourg in Queensland, Alice Springs and Papunya in the Northern Territory.

Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, in March 2020 the Royal Commission decided to suspend all community forums until further notice. Since that time, we have been engaging with stakeholders and advocates (including self-advocates) using online technologies. You can read more about these activities in our eNewsletter Connect.
