This project intends to examine how four regional centres navigate the socio-economic challenges of an increasing Indigenous disability population in a context of national reform. Across OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries, including Australia, disability income support policy has become central to national economic policy. Australian regional centres are experiencing growth in their Indigenous disability populations at a time of significant policy change. We do not know how regional communities respond to these policy changes, nor do we understand how national disability income support policy affects the socio-economic wellbeing of Indigenous persons with disability. This project aims to address this knowledge gap and potentially inform regional and national disability policy for Indigenous Australians.

该项目旨在审查四个区域中心如何在国家改革的背景下应对土著残疾人口不断增加的社会经济挑战。在包括澳大利亚在内的整个经济合作与发展组织(OECD)国家，残疾人收入支持政策已成为国家经济政策的核心。在政策发生重大变化之际，澳大利亚各区域中心的土著残疾人口正在增长。我们不知道区域社区如何应对这些政策变化，也不了解国家残疾收入支助政策如何影响土著残疾人的社会经济福祉。该项目旨在解决这一知识差距，并可能为土著澳大利亚人的区域和国家残疾政策提供信息。
