Craig Wallace is the coordinator of ACT celebrations for International Day of People with Disability for People With Disabilities ACT and a member of the Disability Reference Group for the Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House.
If you look in the right places, disability has not only been with our leaders since the beginning but in our political debates.
Every now and then, a news article laments the lack of people with visible disability in Australian politics.
The Museum of Australian Democracy acknowledges Australia's First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We respectfully acknowledge the role that First Nations people continue to play in shaping Australia's democracy. We also acknowledge the Ngunnawal, Ngunawal and Ngambri peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the region in which MoAD is located.
