There is great work being done locally and globally to address the issue of misrepresentation and exclusion of people with disability in media. This page is home to a consolidated list of the work we are doing or are aware of.   

Our blog posts also feature information and commentary on media portrayal and inclusion of people with disability, what we are working on and other related issues. If you need help on how to include people with disability in any way and can't find it on this page, our Attitude Foundation guidelines for content writers are a good starting point.
