The Shadow Report to the United Nations Committee on the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), Disability Rights Now is a comprehensive and wide-reaching look at the current state of disability rights in Australia.

To zoom in on specific areas, WWDA worked with Disabled Peoples Organisations Australia (DPOA) to create a series of factsheets based on the report.
