What is the National Disability Data Asset?
Australian, state and territory governments worked with people with disability and the wider disability community on the National Disability Data Asset (NDDA). The NDDA brings together de-identified information from different government agencies about all Australians.
This will help us to better understand the experiences of people with disability. The NDDA also give us more information about programs and services, so we can better support people with disability, their families, and carers.
The NDDA is co-governed by the NDDA Council (the ‘Council’), which includes people from both the government and the disability community. The Council asked our inclusive research team to explore topics that matter most to people with disability.
Our first report focuses on mental health care in hospitals.
