About the project  

UNSW Sydney is proud to be a part of the global collaboration, the Disability Matters project funded by the Wellcome Trust. 

Officially launched in September 2023, the six-year project aims to develop anti-ableist and anti-disablist approaches to disability research. The key aim is to make disability the driving subject of research. 

The project is made up of five participating Universities: 

  • University of Sheffield 
  • Dr B. R. Ambedkar University Delhi 
  • University of Toronto 
  • Nanyang Technological University Singapore 
  • UNSW Sydney 

Research is shared across the countries through a series of online symposia hosted by each Institution. Past events are available to view online here.
