Minister's Message

The Northern Territory (NT) Government is proud to continue to support the NT Disability Inclusion Awards. These prestigious Awards align closely with the outcomes in the Northern Territory Disability Strategy 2022-2032, which details the Government’s and communities plan for an inclusive and accessible society for all Territorians, through five key focus areas:

• Rights and Choices
• Inclusive communities
• Accessible communities
• Financial security and employment
• Health and wellbeing

Significantly the Awards recognise and promote the outstanding contributions by individuals, groups and organisations who are working to create an inclusive Territory where people with disability are valued, respected and can contribute to the community no matter where they live.

I want to acknowledge the vital role these individuals and organisations play in supporting people with disability to access mainstream services in the community and providing the opportunity for people with disability to reach their potential. As outlined in our Disability Strategy, the NT Government is committed to a Territory that supports all Territorians and creates a society that removes all barriers for people with disability to live full and prosperous lives.

If you know someone like a neighbour, a friend, a family member or an organisation making a significant contribution to the quality of life and the wellbeing of people with disability, I strongly encourage you to show your appreciation by nominating them for an Award. I look forward to seeing many nominations from all Territory regions.

Minister for Disabilities
