The DWI development team will formally introduce this pivotal new tool, outlining its purpose, structure, and intended applications across disability policy, service delivery, and evaluation.

Professor Tom Shakespeare will be joining us in Melbourne on Tuesday 11 March 2025!
In public health terms, pain is a common issue: in some surveys it is the most common symptom reported. But is it a disability rights issue?
Professor Tom Shakespeare will be joined by a panel of people with disability to discuss how chronic pain impacts people’s everyday lives and how providing the right support could help both those in pain and the wider community.
Pain: a neglected disability rights issue?
