Welcome to the Australian 1 in 4 Poll Website

  • Are you an adult who has a disability or a disabling condition in Australia?
  • Do you care for an adult with a disability in Australia who requires assistance to complete the poll?
  • Would you like to have your say about a range of topics?

What is this website about?

The purpose of this website is to provide an opportunity for people in Australia with a disability to have their say about a variety of social issues. This research began in 2010 and will continue until mid-2012.


Results

The first poll, which asked people with a disability about their sense of social inclusion, is now closed. A total of 763 people, aged 18 to 98 years, completed the survey.

What we have been doing

Since starting this project, researchers have presented to the Australasian Society for the Study of Intellectual Disabilities (2010) and the Australian Social Policy Conference (2011) on how and why this online poll was created.

We are currently finalising the questions for poll number 2. This poll is based on ideas from participants who completed the first poll.


Thank you to everyone who participated in the first poll on social inclusion. See the results of the poll on social inclusion here.
