Our Policy and Research team brings government, businesses, and disabled people together to think, debate and challenge new approaches to advancing disability inclusion in our economy and society. We produce new knowledge and bring bold and fresh approaches to policy problems, so that disabled people have better experiences of social and economic inclusion.
The resources in this section are free and open to all. They include our policy positions, responses to Government consultations and guidance and advice about disability inclusion policy.
To view our current focus areas, how Members and Partners can get involved in shaping disability policy, findings from our Great Big Workplace Adjustments Survey and more, see the Policy and Research page.
