In developing this DIAP, National Archives collaborated with Accessible Arts, the peak arts and disability organisation in New South Wales. Additionally, a diverse range of stakeholders was engaged to gather insights and feedback on access and inclusion.
The consultation process included the following activities:
- 2 focus group discussions with staff and management from across the organisation
- a series of interviews with staff and management to gather detailed perspectives
- an internal survey distributed to all staff and management
- an external survey distributed to stakeholders outside the organisation
- Walk and Talk Access Audit Report featuring feedback from people with disability on physical accessibility at Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth
- Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Compliance Audit to assess the accessibility of digital platforms
- Website Content Audit to evaluate the usability and accessibility of online materials
- a document review report to evaluate the usability and accessibility of current documents.
National Archives extends its gratitude to everyone who contributed their time, expertise and feedback to the development of this plan.
