About

The Australian Federation of Disability Organisations (AFDO) is a Disabled People’s Organisation (DPO) run by and for people with disability, reaching over 4 million Australians. We are a representative organisation for population based and disability specific communities and the pre-eminent national voice representing people with disability across Australia and internationally.   

​

Our Members are national and state disability advocacy organisations run by and for people with disability and their families, representing Australians with disability. Our vision is to achieve a community where people with disability can participate in all aspects of social, economic, political, and cultural life.  

  

To achieve this, AFDO provides policy advice and representation to government and organisations on matters that impact on the lives of people with disability.
